System.CodeDom.CodeMemberMethod Member Details

ctor #1
Summary:
Default constructor. This constructor is called by derived class constructors to initialize state in this type.
C# Syntax:
public CodeMemberMethod();

Return to top


Property: Attributes (read-write)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.CodeDom.CodeTypeMember.Attributes

Summary
Gets or sets the attributes of the member.
C# Syntax:
public MemberAttributes Attributes {get; set;}
Remarks
This property is used to specify attributes of the type member. Some types of attributes are Access (Public/Private) and Scope (Final/Override).
See also:
MemberAttributes

Return to top


Property: Comments (read-only)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.CodeDom.CodeTypeMember.Comments

Summary
Gets the comment collection for the type member.
C# Syntax:
public CodeCommentStatementCollection Comments {get;}
Remarks
Any comments in this collection will be written to the generated source file just before the declaration of the member.
See also:
CodeCommentStatementCollection

Return to top


Property: CustomAttributes (read-write)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.CodeDom.CodeTypeMember.CustomAttributes

Summary
Gets or sets the custom attributes of the member.
C# Syntax:
public CodeAttributeDeclarationCollection CustomAttributes {get; set;}
Remarks
This property can be used to add metadata attributes to the declaration of the member. This property is null by default and should be checked before referencing.
See also:
CodeAttributeDeclarationCollection

Return to top


Property: ImplementationTypes (read-only)
Summary
Gets the data types of the interfaces implemented by this method, unless it is a private method implementation, which is indicated by the CodeMemberMethod.PrivateImplementationType property.
C# Syntax:
public CodeTypeReferenceCollection ImplementationTypes {get;}
Remarks
The types referenced by this collection must consist of interfaces.

If this CodeMemberMethod represents a declaration for a public method, and this method implements a method on an interface, the interface or interfaces this method implements a method of should be referenced in this collection.

The method should still have the same name as the method of the interface that is implemented by this method. For some languages, like C#, this has no effect on the syntax. For others, like Visual Basic, there is a special syntax for implementing interfaces. If the method is privately implementing a single interface, the CodeMemberMethod.PrivateImplementationType property should be used instead.

Property: LinePragma (read-write)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.CodeDom.CodeTypeMember.LinePragma

Summary
Gets or sets the line the statement occurs on.
C# Syntax:
public CodeLinePragma LinePragma {get; set;}
Remarks
This property indicates the location of the type member declaration. This property can be used for purposes of error reporting and debugging. This can be useful when code is generated based on a template file. This value is null by default and should be checked before referencing.
