Public Properties

[read-only]	Attributes	System.Reflection.TypeAttributes. Gets the attributes associated with the type represented by the current instance.
[read-only] abstract	BaseType	Type. Gets the base Type of the current Type .
[read-only]	ContainsGenericParameters	bool. Gets a value that indicates whether a Type object contains unassigned generic parameters.
[read-only]	DeclaringMethod	System.Reflection.MethodBase. If the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic method, gets a System.Reflection.MethodInfo that represents the declaring method.
[read-only] override	DeclaringType	Type. Gets the type that declares the type represented by the current instance.
[read-only] static	DefaultBinder	System.Reflection.Binder. Gets the default binder used by the system.
[read-only] abstract	FullName	string. Gets the fully qualified name of the type represented by the current instance.
[read-only]	GenericParameterAttributes	System.Reflection.GenericParameterAttributes. Gets a combination of System.Reflection.GenericParameterAttributes flags that describe the variance and special constraints of the current generic type parameter.
[read-only]	GenericParameterPosition	int. For a Type object that represents a type parameter of a generic type or generic method, gets the position of the type parameter in the type parameter list of the generic type or generic method.
[read-only] abstract	GUID	Guid. Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.
[read-only]	HasElementType	bool. Gets a bool value indicating whether the type represented by the current instance encompasses or refers to another type; that is, whether the current Type is an array, a pointer, or is passed by reference.
