| Exception | Condition |

| NotSupportedException | The invoked method is not supported in the base class. |
StructLayoutAttribute is not returned by the GetCustomAttributes method. Instead, use this property to get it.
The following code example first defines a class, a structure, and a structure with special layout attributes (the structures are nested within the class). The example then uses the StructLayoutAttribute property to obtain a StructLayoutAttribute for each type, and displays the properties of the attributes.
using namespace System; using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices; value struct Test1 { public: Byte B1; short S; Byte B2; }; [StructLayout(LayoutKind::Explicit,Pack=1)] value struct Test2 { public: [FieldOffset(0)] Byte B1; [FieldOffset(1)] short S; [FieldOffset(3)] Byte B2; }; static void DisplayLayoutAttribute( StructLayoutAttribute^ sla ) { Console::WriteLine( L"\r\nCharSet: {0}\r\n Pack: {1}\r\n Size: {2}\r\n Value: {3}", sla->CharSet, sla->Pack, sla->Size, sla->Value ); } int main() { DisplayLayoutAttribute( Test1::typeid->StructLayoutAttribute ); return 0; }
