Assembly.GetCustomAttributes Method (Type, Boolean)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets the custom attributes for this assembly as specified by type.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable Function GetCustomAttributes ( _
    attributeType As Type, _
    inherit As Boolean _
) As Object()

public virtual Object[] GetCustomAttributes(
    Type attributeType,
    bool inherit
)

Parameters

  • attributeType
    Type: System.Type
    The Type for which the custom attributes are to be returned.

Return Value

Type: array<System.Object[]
An array of type Object containing the custom attributes for this assembly as specified by attributeType.

Implements

ICustomAttributeProvider.GetCustomAttributes(Type, Boolean)

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

attributeType is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentException

attributeType is not a runtime type.
MemberAccessException

The method is invoked late-bound through mechanisms such as Type.InvokeMember.

Remarks

This method implements the corresponding ICustomAttributeProvider interface method. Therefore, the inherit parameter must be specified even though it is ignored.

A pseudo-attribute indicates bits of the core metadata that must be set when the attribute is present. Unlike a custom attribute that extends the metadata for a type and is saved along with the type, a pseudo-attribute modifies the metadata for the type and then is discarded. Some of the resulting bits cannot be accessed using existing reflection APIs.

The following table summarizes the different pseudo-attributes and the accessors for the bits that are available in reflection.
