System.Reflection.TypeAttributes Enumeration

Specifies type attributes.

Syntax

[System.Flags]
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)]
public enum TypeAttributes

Remarks

The members of this enumerator class match the CorTypeAttr enumerator as defined in the corhdr.h file.

Members

Member NameDescription
Abstract

Specifies that the type is abstract.

AnsiClass

LPTSTR is interpreted as ANSI.

AutoClass

LPTSTR is interpreted automatically.

AutoLayout

Specifies that class fields are automatically laid out by the common language runtime.

BeforeFieldInit

Specifies that calling static methods of the type does not force the system to initialize the type.

Class

Specifies that the type is a class.

ClassSemanticsMask

Specifies class semantics information; the current class is contextful (else agile).

CustomFormatClass

LPSTR is interpreted by some implementation-specific means, which includes the possibility of throwing a NotSupportedException. Not used in the Microsoft implementation of the dnprdnshort.

CustomFormatMask

Used to retrieve non-standard encoding information for native interop. The meaning of the values of these 2 bits is unspecified. Not used in the Microsoft implementation of the dnprdnshort.

ExplicitLayout

Specifies that class fields are laid out at the specified offsets.

HasSecurity

Type has security associate with it.

Import

Specifies that the class or interface is imported from another module.

Interface

Specifies that the type is an interface.

LayoutMask

Specifies class layout information.

NestedAssembly

Specifies that the class is nested with assembly visibility, and is thus accessible only by methods within its assembly.

NestedFamANDAssem

Specifies that the class is nested with assembly and family visibility, and is thus accessible only by methods lying in the intersection of its family and assembly.

NestedFamily

Specifies that the class is nested with family visibility, and is thus accessible only by methods within its own type and any derived types.

NestedFamORAssem

Specifies that the class is nested with family or assembly visibility, and is thus accessible only by methods lying in the union of its family and assembly.

NestedPrivate

Specifies that the class is nested with private visibility.

NestedPublic

Specifies that the class is nested with public visibility.

NotPublic

Specifies that the class is not public.

Public

Specifies that the class is public.

ReservedMask

Attributes reserved for runtime use.

RTSpecialName

Runtime should check name encoding.

Sealed

Specifies that the class is concrete and cannot be extended.

SequentialLayout

Specifies that class fields are laid out sequentially, in the order that the fields were emitted to the metadata.

Serializable

Specifies that the class can be serialized.

SpecialName

Specifies that the class is special in a way denoted by the name.

StringFormatMask

Used to retrieve string information for native interoperability.

UnicodeClass

LPTSTR is interpreted as UNICODE.

VisibilityMask

Specifies type visibility information.

WindowsRuntime

Specifies a wrt type.
