Source:

SecurityTransparentAttribute.cs

Specifies that an assembly cannot cause an elevation of privilege.

Remarks

Important

Partially trusted code is no longer supported. This attribute has no effect in .NET Core.

Transparent assemblies can be accessed from partially trusted code and cannot expose access to any protected resources or functionality. Code in the assembly is not allowed to suppress code access security checks and cannot cause an elevation of privilege.

Note

Transparency is enforced by the just-in-time compiler, not by the security infrastructure code. Applying this attribute to an assembly allows the assembly to access only transparent and security-safe-critical types and members regardless of its permission set, including full trust. Transparent code that accesses a security-critical type or member results in a MethodAccessException being thrown.

Constructors

SecurityTransparentAttribute()

Initializes a new instance of the SecurityTransparentAttribute class.

Properties

TypeId

When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)
