Type::Attributes Property
Gets the attributes associated with the Type.
Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Property Value
Type: System.Reflection::TypeAttributesA TypeAttributes object representing the attribute set of the Type, unless the Type represents a generic type parameter, in which case the value is unspecified.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this property returns the attributes of the generic type definition. For example, the attributes returned for MyGenericClass<int> (MyGenericClass(Of Integer) in Visual Basic) are the attributes of MyGenericClass<T> (MyGenericClass(Of T) in Visual Basic).
If the current Type represents a generic type parameter — that is, if the IsGenericParameter property returns true — the TypeAttributes value returned by this property is unspecified.
The following example shows the use of the Type.Attributes property. The fact that there is a member in each of several groupings that has the value zero means that you must use masks before testing for those members.
For most purposes, properties like IsClass, IsAutoLayout, and IsSpecialName are easier to use than type attributes.
