System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute Class

Assembly: Mscorlib.dll
Namespace: System.Diagnostics
Summary
Specifies the DebuggerStepThroughAttribute. This class cannot be inherited.
C# Syntax:
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class | AttributeTargets.Struct | AttributeTargets.Constructor | AttributeTargets.Method)]
[Serializable]
public sealed class DebuggerStepThroughAttribute : Attribute
Remarks
The common language runtime attaches no semantics to this attribute. It is provided for use by source code debuggers. For example, the Visual Studio .NET debugger does not stop in a method marked with this attribute but does allow a breakpoint to be set in the method.

For more information about using attributes, see the conceptual topic at MSDN: extendingmetadatausingattributes.

System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute Member Details

ctor #1
Summary
Enables the DebuggerStepThroughAttribute.

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

Return to top


Property: TypeId (read-only)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.TypeId

Summary
When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute.
C# Syntax:
public virtual object TypeId {get;}
Remarks
As implemented, this identifier is merely the Type of the attribute. However, it is intended that the unique identifier be used to identify two attributes of the same type.

Method: Equals(
   object obj
)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Object.Equals
C# Syntax:
public virtual bool Equals(
   object obj
);

Method: Finalize()
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Object.Finalize
C# Syntax:
~DebuggerStepThroughAttribute();

Method: GetHashCode()
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.GetHashCode

Summary
Returns the hash code for this instance.
C# Syntax:
public override int GetHashCode();
Return Value:
A 32-bit signed integer hash code.

Return to top


Method: GetType()
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Object.GetType
C# Syntax:
public Type GetType();

Method: IsDefaultAttribute()
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.IsDefaultAttribute

Summary
When overridden in a derived class, returns an indication whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class.
C# Syntax:
public virtual bool IsDefaultAttribute();
Return Value:
true if this instance is the default attribute for the class; otherwise, false.
Remarks
The default implementation of this class returns false, and must be implemented in the derived class to be useful to that class.

The implementation of this method in a derived class compares the value of this instance to a standard, default value obtained by some means, then returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the value of this instance is equal to the standard. The standard value is typically coded as a constant in the implementation, or stored programmatically in a field used by the implementation.

Method: Match(
   object obj
)
Inherited
See base class member description: System.Attribute.Match

Summary
When overridden in a derived class, returns a value indicating whether this instance equals a specified object.
C# Syntax:
public virtual bool Match(
   object obj
);
Parameters:

obj

An Object to compare with this instance of Attribute.

Return Value:
true if this instance equals obj; otherwise, false.
Remarks
This method determines if one Attribute equals another. Its default implementation is the same as Attribute.Equals, which performs a value and reference comparison. Override this method to implement support for attribute values, such as flags or bitfields, that consist of components that are meaningful in themselves. For example, consider an attribute whose value is a binary field divided into a bitfield of flags. Two instances of this attribute have one flag in set in common while all the other flags differ. The Equal method cannot determine that the two instances have the same flag set, but the Match method can.
