FieldInfo.IsAssembly Property

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

Gets a value that indicates whether the potential visibility of this field is described by FieldAttributes.Assembly; that is, the field is visible at most to other types in the same assembly, and is not visible to derived types outside the assembly.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property IsAssembly As Boolean
public bool IsAssembly { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the visibility of this field is exactly described by FieldAttributes.Assembly; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
MethodAccessException

This member is invoked late-bound through mechanisms such as Type.InvokeMember.

Remarks

The actual visibility of a field is limited by the visibility of its type. The IsAssembly property might be true for a field, but if it is a field of a private nested type, the field is not visible outside the containing type.

The visibility of a field is exactly described by FieldAttributes.Assembly if the only visibility modifier is internal (Friend in Visual Basic). This property is false for fields that are protected internal in C# (Protected Friend in Visual Basic, protected public in C++); use the IsFamilyOrAssembly property to identify such fields.

Examples

The following example defines fields with varying levels of visibility, and displays the values of their IsAssembly, IsFamily, IsFamilyOrAssembly, and IsFamilyAndAssembly properties.

NoteNote:

The Visual Basic and C# languages cannot define fields with FieldAttributes.FamANDAssem visibility.

To run this example, see Building Examples That Use a Demo Method and a TextBlock Control.
