public:
 abstract cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ GetCustomAttributes(bool inherit);
public abstract object[] GetCustomAttributes (bool inherit);
abstract member GetCustomAttributes : bool -> obj[]
Public MustOverride Function GetCustomAttributes (inherit As Boolean) As Object()

Parameters

inherit
Boolean

true to search this member's inheritance chain to find the attributes; otherwise, false. This parameter is ignored for properties and events.

Returns

Object[]

An array that contains all the custom attributes applied to this member, or an array with zero elements if no attributes are defined.

Implements

Exceptions

This member belongs to a type that is loaded into the reflection-only context. See How to: Load Assemblies into the Reflection-Only Context.

A custom attribute type could not be loaded.

Examples

The following example defines a custom attribute and associates the attribute with MyClass.MyMethod, retrieves the attribute at run time, and displays the result.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;

// Define a custom attribute with one named parameter.

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets::All)]
public ref class MyAttribute: public Attribute
{
private:
   String^ myName;

public:
   MyAttribute( String^ name )
   {
      myName = name;
   }

   property String^ Name 
   {
      String^ get()
      {
         return myName;
      }
   }
};

// Define a class that has the custom attribute associated with one of its members.
public ref class MyClass1
{
public:

   [MyAttribute("This is an example attribute.")]
   void MyMethod( int i )
   {
      return;
   }
};

int main()
{
   try
   {
      // Get the type of MyClass1.
      Type^ myType = MyClass1::typeid;

      // Get the members associated with MyClass1.
      array<MemberInfo^>^myMembers = myType->GetMembers();

      // Display the attributes for each of the members of MyClass1.
      for ( int i = 0; i < myMembers->Length; i++ )
      {
         array<Object^>^myAttributes = myMembers[ i ]->GetCustomAttributes( true );
         if ( myAttributes->Length > 0 )
         {
            Console::WriteLine( "\nThe attributes for the member {0} are: \n", myMembers[ i ] );
            for ( int j = 0; j < myAttributes->Length; j++ )
               Console::WriteLine( "The type of the attribute is {0}.", myAttributes[ j ] );
         }
      }
   }

      Console::WriteLine( "An exception occurred: {0}", e->Message );

Remarks

This method ignores the inherit parameter for properties and events. To search the inheritance chain for attributes on properties and events, use the appropriate overloads of the Attribute.GetCustomAttributes method.

Note

In the .NET Framework version 2.0, this method returns security attributes on methods, constructors, and types if they are stored in the new metadata format. Assemblies compiled with version 2.0 use this format. Dynamic assemblies and assemblies compiled with earlier versions of the .NET Framework use the old XML format. See Emitting Declarative Security Attributes.

When overridden in a derived class, returns an array of custom attributes applied to this member and identified by Type.

Public MustOverride Function GetCustomAttributes (attributeType As Type, inherit As Boolean) As Object()

Parameters

attributeType
Type

The type of attribute to search for. Only attributes that are assignable to this type are returned.

inherit
Boolean

true to search this member's inheritance chain to find the attributes; otherwise, false. This parameter is ignored for properties and events.

Returns

Object[]

An array of custom attributes applied to this member, or an array with zero elements if no attributes assignable to attributeType have been applied.

Exceptions

A custom attribute type cannot be loaded.

If attributeType is null.

This member belongs to a type that is loaded into the reflection-only context. See How to: Load Assemblies into the Reflection-Only Context.

Examples

The following example defines a class named BaseClass that has two non-inherited members: a thread static field named total and a non-CLS-compliant method named MethodA. A class named DerivedClass inherits from BaseClass and overrides its MethodA method. Note that no attributes are applied to the members of DerivedClass. The example iterates the members of DerivedClass to determine whether the CLSCompliantAttribute or ThreadStaticAttribute attribute as been applied to them. Because inherit is true, the method searches the inheritance hierarchy of DerivedClass for the specified attribute. As the output from the example shows, the total field is decorated with the ThreadStaticAttribute attribute, and the MethodA method is decorated with the CLSCompliantAttribute attribute.

using System;

public class BaseClass
{
   [ThreadStatic] public int total;

   [CLSCompliant(false)] public virtual uint MethodA()
   {
      return (uint) 100;
   }
}

public class DerivedClass : BaseClass
{
   public override uint MethodA()
   {
      total++;
      return 200;
   }
}

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Type t = typeof(DerivedClass);
      Console.WriteLine("Members of {0}:", t.FullName);
      foreach (var m in t.GetMembers())
      {
         bool hasAttribute = false;
         Console.Write("   {0}: ", m.Name);
         if (m.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(CLSCompliantAttribute), true).Length > 0) {
            Console.Write("CLSCompliant");
            hasAttribute = true;
         }
         if (m.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(ThreadStaticAttribute), true).Length > 0) {

            hasAttribute = true;
