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

Gets a value that indicates whether the method is a generic method.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property IsGenericMethod As Boolean
public override bool IsGenericMethod { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the method is generic; otherwise, false.

Remarks

A method is generic if it has type parameters. You can make a method generic by calling the DefineGenericParameters method to add type parameters. This change cannot be reversed.

Examples

The following example displays the status of a method. This code is part of a larger example provided for the DefineGenericParameters method.

' Use the IsGenericMethod property to find out if a
' dynamic method is generic, and IsGenericMethodDefinition
' to find out if it defines a generic method.
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("Is DemoMethod generic? {0}", _
    demoMethod.IsGenericMethod) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("Is DemoMethod a generic method definition? {0}", _
    demoMethod.IsGenericMethodDefinition) & vbCrLf
// Use the IsGenericMethod property to find out if a
// dynamic method is generic, and IsGenericMethodDefinition
// to find out if it defines a generic method.
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Is DemoMethod generic? {0}",
    demoMethod.IsGenericMethod) + "\n";
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Is DemoMethod a generic method definition? {0}",
    demoMethod.IsGenericMethodDefinition) + "\n";
