PropertyInfo.GetAccessors Method (Boolean)

Parameters

• nonPublic
  Type: System.Boolean
  true to include non-public accessors; otherwise, false.

Return Value

Type: array<System.Reflection.MethodInfo[]
An array that contains the get, set, and other accessors of the property reflected by the current instance. If nonPublic is true, this array contains public and non-public accessors. If nonPublic is false, this array contains only public accessors. If no accessors with the specified visibility are found, this method returns an array with 0 (zero) elements.

Imports System.Reflection

Class Example

   ' Define a property that has a public get accessor and a protected set
   ' accessor. That is, the property can only be set by classes that 
   ' derive from Example.
   Private myCaption As String = "A Default caption"
   Public Property Caption() As String
      Get
         Return myCaption
      End Get

      Protected Set(ByVal Value As String)
         If myCaption <> Value Then
            myCaption = Value
         End If
      End Set
   End Property

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock) 

      ' Get the PropertyInfo.
      Dim captionInfo As PropertyInfo = GetType(Example).GetProperty("Caption")

      outputBlock.Text &= "Public accessors:" & vbLf

      ' List the public accessors.
      For Each mi As MethodInfo In captionInfo.GetAccessors()
         outputBlock.Text &= mi.ToString() & vbLf
      Next

      outputBlock.Text &= vbLf & "All accessors:" & vbLf

      ' List all accessors.
      For Each mi As MethodInfo In captionInfo.GetAccessors(True)
         outputBlock.Text &= mi.ToString() & vbLf
      Next

   End Sub
End Class

' This example produces the following output:
'
'Public accessors:
'System.String get_Caption()
'
'All accessors:
'System.String get_Caption()
'Void set_Caption(System.String)
