EventAttributes Enumeration

[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]

Specifies the attributes of an event.

This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.

Namespace:  System.Reflection
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

[FlagsAttribute]
public enum EventAttributes

Member nameDescription
NoneSpecifies that the event has no attributes.
ReservedMaskSpecifies a reserved flag for common language runtime use only.
RTSpecialNameSpecifies that the common language runtime should check name encoding.
SpecialNameSpecifies that the event is special in a way described by the name.

EventAttributes values may be combined using the bitwise OR operation to get the appropriate combination.

The following example uses reflection emit to create a type with two events. It uses EventAttributes.None to specify that the events have no attributes.

using System.Threading;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Reflection.Emit;


public class Example
{
   public delegate void MyEvent(Object temp);
   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {
      TypeBuilder helloWorldClass = CreateCallee(Thread.GetDomain());

      EventInfo[] info =
         helloWorldClass.GetEvents(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance);
      outputBlock.Text += "'HelloWorld' type has following events :" + "\n";
      for (int i = 0; i < info.Length; i++)
         outputBlock.Text += info[i].Name + "\n";
   }

   // Create the callee transient dynamic assembly.
   private static TypeBuilder CreateCallee(AppDomain myDomain)
   {
      AssemblyName assemblyName = new AssemblyName();
      assemblyName.Name = "EmittedAssembly";

      // Create the callee dynamic assembly.
      AssemblyBuilder myAssembly =
         myDomain.DefineDynamicAssembly(assemblyName, AssemblyBuilderAccess.Run);
      // Create a dynamic module named "CalleeModule" in the callee.
      ModuleBuilder myModule = myAssembly.DefineDynamicModule("EmittedModule");

      // Define a public class named "HelloWorld" in the assembly.
      TypeBuilder helloWorldClass =
         myModule.DefineType("HelloWorld", TypeAttributes.Public);

      MethodBuilder myMethod1 = helloWorldClass.DefineMethod("OnClick",
         MethodAttributes.Public, typeof(void), new Type[] { typeof(Object) });
      ILGenerator methodIL1 = myMethod1.GetILGenerator();
      methodIL1.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
      MethodBuilder myMethod2 = helloWorldClass.DefineMethod("OnMouseUp",
         MethodAttributes.Public, typeof(void), new Type[] { typeof(Object) });
      ILGenerator methodIL2 = myMethod2.GetILGenerator();
      methodIL2.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);

      // Create the events.
      EventBuilder myEvent1 = helloWorldClass.DefineEvent("Click", EventAttributes.None,
         typeof(MyEvent));
      myEvent1.SetRaiseMethod(myMethod1);
      EventBuilder myEvent2 = helloWorldClass.DefineEvent("MouseUp", EventAttributes.None,
         typeof(MyEvent));
      myEvent2.SetRaiseMethod(myMethod2);

      helloWorldClass.CreateType();
      return (helloWorldClass);
   }
}
