Type::IsNestedFamily Property
Visual Studio 2010
Gets a value indicating whether the Type is nested and visible only within its own family.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Property Value
Type: System::Booleantrue if the Type is nested and visible only within its own family; otherwise, false.
Implements
_Type::IsNestedFamilyIf the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic type, this property always returns false.
TypeAttributes::VisibilityMask selects the visibility attributes.
A Type object's family is defined as all objects of the exact same Type and of its subtypes.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the IsNestedFamily property to determine whether a type is both nested and protected.
// Enclose a class. ref class MyClassA { protected: // Protected nested class. ref class MyClassB{}; }; ref class MyTestClass: public MyClassA { public: static void Test() { // Get the Type of the nested class. Type^ myTypeB = MyClassA::MyClassB::typeid; // Get the 'IsNestedFamily' property the of the nested class // 'Type'. Console::WriteLine( "\nThe nested class has the property 'IsNestedFamily' value: {0}", myTypeB->IsNestedFamily ); } }; int main() { MyTestClass::Test(); }
