Returns an array of System.Reflection.MemberInfo objects that reflect the members defined in the type represented by the current instance that have the specified name and match the specified binding constraints.
Parameters
- name
- A string containing the name of the member to be returned.
- 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.MemberInfo objects that reflect the members named name, are defined in the type represented by the current instance and match the constraints of bindingAttr . If no members match these constraints, returns an empty array. If the selected member is non-public, the type reflected 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 null .
Permissions
Type Reason System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermission Requires permission to retrieve information on non-public members of types in loaded assemblies. See System.Security.Permissions.ReflectionPermissionFlag.TypeInformation.
Exceptions
Type Reason ArgumentNullException name is null.
Remarks
The following System.Reflection.BindingFlags are used to define which members to include in the search:
- Specify either System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static to get a return value other than null.
- Specify System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public to include public members in the search.
- Specify System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic to include non-public members (that is, private and protected members) 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 members declared in the type, not members that were simply inherited.
- System.Reflection.BindingFlags.IgnoreCase to ignore the case of name.
Note: For more information, see System.Reflection.BindingFlags.If the current instance represents a generic type, this method returns the System.Reflection.MemberInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current instance represents an unassigned type parameter of a generic type or method, this method searches the members of the class constraint, or the members of object if there is no class constraint; the members of all interface constraints; and the members of any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.
Note: The name parameter cannot include type arguments.Operation
As described above.
