Properties

	Name	Description
	AssemblyName	Gets or sets the name of the target assembly.
	CodeBase	Gets or sets a relative path from $PackageFolder$, or an absolute path rooted from an environment variable substitution (of format %variable%).
	Culture	Gets or sets a string that specifies the language and country/region of the assembly.
	CurrentAssembly	Gets or sets the assembly to which the generated dependentAssembly registry entry refers.
	Guid	Gets the identifier of this attribute instance.
	PublicKeyToken	Gets or sets a 16-character hexadecimal number which is the token part of the strong name of the assembly being redirected.
	TypeId	Gets the current instance of this attribute. (Inherited from RegistrationAttribute.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	FormatPublicKeyToken	Formats a binary public key token into a hexadecimal string.
	GetGuidHashString	Gets the string that will be hashed into the identifier of the attribute.
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetPackageRegKeyPath	Gets the registry path (relative to the registry root of the application) of the VSPackage. (Inherited from RegistrationAttribute.)
	GetPathToKey	Gets the path to the key were the values for this attribute will be registered.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsDefaultAttribute	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Register	Registers this attribute with the given context. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Register(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)
	SetValues	Set values handled by this attribute in the given key.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	TryParseVersion	Tries to parse a string into a version.
	Unregister	Unregisters this attribute. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Unregister(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)
	UpdateAssemblyInformation	Updates all information not provided from the assembly to which this attribute is applied.
	ValidateAttributeInformation	Validates that all the required information has been supplied.

Fields

	Name	Description
	_guidUpdateNeeded	Infrastructure. Indicates whether a GUID update is required. If true, a GUID update is required. If false (default), no update is required.

Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.GetTypeInfo	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.Invoke	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
