Remarks

The attributes returned are merged with attributes of other members and vary depending on member type.

  • For properties, the returned attributes are also merged with the attributes of the property type.

  • For events, the returned attributes are merged with the attributes of the event handler type.

  • For types, the returned attributes are merged with the attributes of interfaces implemented on the type.

If you do not want this automatic merging behavior, use the GetLocalAttributes method instead.
