Returns an array of System.Reflection.FieldInfo objects that reflect the fields that are defined in the type represented by the current instance and match the specified binding constraints.
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.FieldInfo objects that reflect the fields that are defined in the type represented by the current instance and match the constraints of bindingAttr . If no fields match these constraints, returns an empty array. If the type represented by the current instance is from a loaded assembly and the caller does not have sufficient permission to reflect on non-public objects in loaded assemblies, returns only public fields.
If the current instance represents a generic type, this method returns the System.Reflection.FieldInfo objects with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
Permissions
Type Reason System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermission Requires permission to retrieve information on non-public members of a type in loaded assemblies. See System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermissionFlag.TypeInformation.
Remarks
The following System.Reflection.BindingFlags are used to define which fields to include in the search:
- Specify either System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static in order to get a return value other than null.
- Specify System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public to include public fields in the search.
- Specify System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic to include non-public fields (that is, private and protected fields) in the search.
The following System.Reflection.BindingFlags values can be used to change how the search works:
- System.Reflection.BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly to search only the fields declared in the type, not fields that were simply inherited.
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 fields of the class constraint; the fields of all interface constraints; and the fields of any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.
Operation
As described above.
