Type.DeclaringMethod Property

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

Gets a MethodBase that represents the declaring method, if the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic method.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property DeclaringMethod As MethodBase

public virtual MethodBase DeclaringMethod { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Reflection.MethodBase
If the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic method, a MethodBase that represents declaring method; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The declaring method is a generic method definition. That is, if DeclaringMethod does not return nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then DeclaringMethod.IsGenericMethodDefinition returns true.

The DeclaringType and DeclaringMethod properties identify the generic type definition or generic method definition in which the generic type parameter was originally defined:

If the DeclaringMethod property returns a MethodInfo, that MethodInfo represents a generic method definition, and the current Type object represents a type parameter of that generic method definition.
If the DeclaringMethod property returns nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then the DeclaringType property always returns a Type object representing a generic type definition, and the current Type object represents a type parameter of that generic type definition.
Getting the DeclaringMethod property on a type whose IsGenericParameter property is false throws an InvalidOperationException.

The MethodBase that is returned by the DeclaringMethod property is either a MethodInfo in the case of a generic method, or a ConstructorInfo in the case of a generic constructor.

Note:
In Silverlight, generic constructors are not supported.

For a list of the invariant conditions for terms used in generic reflection, see the IsGenericType property remarks.

Examples

The following code example defines a class that has a generic method, assigns a type argument to the method, and invokes the resulting constructed generic method. It also displays information about the generic method definition and the constructed method. When displaying information about the type parameters of the generic method definition, in the DisplayGenericMethodInfo method, the example code shows the value of the DeclaringMethod property for the method's generic type parameter.
