Type.IsNestedFamANDAssem Property

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

Gets a value indicating whether the Type is nested and visible only to classes that belong to both its own family and its own assembly.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property IsNestedFamANDAssem As Boolean

public bool IsNestedFamANDAssem { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the Type is nested and visible only to classes that belong to both its own family and its own assembly; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic type, this property always returns false.

TypeAttributes.VisibilityMask selects the visibility attributes.

A Type object's family is defined as all objects of the exact same Type and of its subtypes.

Examples

The following example demonstrates a use of the IsNestedFamANDAssem property.

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

' Enclose a class.
Class MyClassA
   ' Protected friend nested class.
   Protected Friend Class MyClassB
   End Class 'MyClassB
End Class 'MyClassA
Class Example
   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      ' Get the type of the nested class.
      Dim myTypeB As Type = GetType(MyClassA.MyClassB)
      ' Get the IsNestedFamANDAssem property of the nested class.
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format(ControlChars.Cr + "The IsNestedFamANDAssem property value of the nested class is {0}.", myTypeB.IsNestedFamANDAssem.ToString()) & vbCrLf
   End Sub 'Main
End Class 'MyTestClass

using System;
// Enclose a class.
class MyClassA
{
   protected internal class MyClassB
   {
   }
}
class Example
{
   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {
      // Get the type of the nested class.
      Type myTypeB = typeof(MyClassA.MyClassB);
      // Get the IsNestedFamANDAssem property of the nested class.
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\nThe IsNestedFamANDAssem property value of the nested class is {0}.", myTypeB.IsNestedFamANDAssem.ToString()) + "\n";
   }
}
