DesignerGeneratedAttribute Class

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

When applied to a class, the compiler implicitly calls a component-initializing method from the default synthetic constructor.

	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Remarks

This attribute instructs the compiler to implicitly calls a private InitializeComponent method from the default synthetic constructor. The compiler will also verify that this method is called from user defined constructors and report a warning or error it is not. The Visual Studio Integrated Development Environment will honor this attribute when generating code on behalf of the user.
