System.Type.GetEvents Method

Returns an array of System.Reflection.EventInfo objects that reflect the events that are defined in the type represented by the current instance and match the specified binding constraints.

public abstract System.Reflection.EventInfo[] GetEvents (System.Reflection.BindingFlags bindingAttr)

Parameters

bindingAttr
A bitwise combination of System.Reflection.BindingFlags values that control the binding process. If zero is specified, this method returns null.

Returns

An array of System.Reflection.EventInfo objects that reflect the events that are defined in the type represented by the current instance and match the constraints of bindingAttr . If no events match these constraints, returns an empty array. If the type reflected by the current instance is from a loaded assembly and the caller does not have permission to reflect on non-public objects in loaded assemblies, returns only public events.

If the current instance represents a generic type, this method returns the System.Reflection.EventInfo objects with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.

Permissions

TypeReason
System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermissionRequires permission to retrieve information on non-public members of types in loaded assemblies. See System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermissionFlag.TypeInformation.

Remarks

The following System.Reflection.BindingFlags are used to define which events to include in the search:

Note: For more information, see System.Reflection.BindingFlags.

If the current instance represents an unassigned type parameter of a generic type or method, this method searches the events of the class constraint; the events of all interface constraints; and the events of any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.

Operation
As described above.
