Type::IsPublic Property
Gets a value indicating whether the Type is declared public.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Property Value
Type: System::Booleantrue if the Type is declared public and is not a nested type; otherwise, false.
Implements
_Type::IsPublicDo not use with nested types; use IsNestedPublic instead.
If the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic type, this property returns true.
TypeAttributes::VisibilityMask selects the visibility attributes.
The following example creates an instance of MyTestClass, checks for the IsPublic property, and displays the result.
using namespace System; namespace SystemType { // Declare MyTestClass as public. public ref class MyTestClass{}; public ref class MyClass{}; } int main() { try { bool myBool = false; SystemType::MyTestClass^ myTestClassInstance = gcnew SystemType::MyTestClass; // Get the type of myTestClassInstance. Type^ myType = myTestClassInstance->GetType(); // Get the IsPublic property of the myTestClassInstance. myBool = myType->IsPublic; Console::WriteLine( "\nIs {0} public? {1}.", myType->FullName, myBool.ToString() ); } catch ( Exception^ e ) { Console::WriteLine( "\nAn exception occurred: {0}", e->Message ); } }
For nested classes, ignore the results of IsPublic and IsNotPublic and pay attention only to the results of IsNestedPublic and IsNestedPrivate.
