Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Sets the set accessor, which is the method that sets the property value.

Examples
The following example demonstrates how to define a property, create a set accessor, and attach the set accessor to the property by using the SetSetMethod method.
This example is part of a larger example provided for the TypeBuilder class.
' Define a property named Number that gets and sets the private
' field.
'
' The last argument of DefineProperty is Nothing, because the
' property has no parameters. (If you don't specify Nothing, you must
' specify an array of Type objects. For a parameterless property,
' use the built-in array with no elements: Type.EmptyTypes)
Dim pbNumber As PropertyBuilder = tb.DefineProperty( _
"Number", _
PropertyAttributes.HasDefault, _
GetType(Integer), _
Nothing)
' The property Set and property Get methods require a special
' set of attributes.
Dim getSetAttr As MethodAttributes = _
MethodAttributes.Public Or MethodAttributes.SpecialName _
Or MethodAttributes.HideBySig
' Define the "get" accessor method for Number. The method returns
' an integer and has no arguments. (Note that Nothing could be
' used instead of Types.EmptyTypes)
Dim mbNumberGetAccessor As MethodBuilder = tb.DefineMethod( _
"get_Number", _
getSetAttr, _
GetType(Integer), _
Type.EmptyTypes)
Dim numberGetIL As ILGenerator = mbNumberGetAccessor.GetILGenerator()
' For an instance property, argument zero is the instance. Load the
' instance, then load the private field and return, leaving the
' field value on the stack.
numberGetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0)
numberGetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ldfld, fbNumber)
numberGetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ret)
' Define the "set" accessor method for Number, which has no return
' type and takes one argument of type Integer (Int32).
Dim mbNumberSetAccessor As MethodBuilder = _
tb.DefineMethod( _
"set_Number", _
getSetAttr, _
Nothing, _
New Type() {GetType(Integer)})
Dim numberSetIL As ILGenerator = mbNumberSetAccessor.GetILGenerator()
' Load the instance and then the numeric argument, then store the
' argument in the field.
numberSetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0)
numberSetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_1)
numberSetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Stfld, fbNumber)
numberSetIL.Emit(OpCodes.Ret)
' Last, map the "get" and "set" accessor methods to the
' PropertyBuilder. The property is now complete.

pbNumber.SetSetMethod(mbNumberSetAccessor)
