GetAccessors()

Examples

The following example retrieves the public accessors of the ClassWithProperty.Caption property and displays information about them. It also calls the Invoke method of the setter to set the property value and of the getter to retrieve the property value.

using System;
using System.Reflection;
 
// Define a property.
public class ClassWithProperty
{
    private string _caption = "A Default caption";

    public string Caption
    {
        get { return _caption; }
        set { if(_caption != value) _caption = value; }
    }

        PropertyInfo propInfo = t.GetProperty("Caption");
 
        // Get the public GetAccessors method.

        Console.WriteLine("There are {0} accessors.",

Remarks

To call the GetAccessors method:

Get a Type object that represents the class.
From the Type object, get the PropertyInfo object.
From the PropertyInfo object, call the GetAccessors method.

Applies to

Source:: PropertyInfo.cs

Source:: PropertyInfo.cs

Source:: PropertyInfo.cs

Returns an array whose elements reflect the public and, if specified, non-public get and set accessors of the property reflected by the current instance.

public:
 abstract cli::array <System::Reflection::MethodInfo ^> ^ GetAccessors(bool nonPublic);

public abstract System.Reflection.MethodInfo[] GetAccessors (bool nonPublic);

abstract member GetAccessors : bool -> System.Reflection.MethodInfo[]

Public MustOverride Function GetAccessors (nonPublic As Boolean) As MethodInfo()

Parameters

nonPublic: Boolean

Indicates whether non-public methods should be returned in the returned array. true if non-public methods are to be included; otherwise, false.

Returns

MethodInfo[]

An array whose elements reflect the get and set accessors of the property reflected by the current instance. If nonPublic is true, this array contains public and non-public get and set accessors. If nonPublic is false, this array contains only public get and set accessors. If no accessors with the specified visibility are found, this method returns an array with zero (0) elements.
