C# Attribute.isDefined() example?

Question

Can someone please give me an example of using Attribute.isDefined() to check if a particular custom attribute has been applied to a given class?

I've checked msdn, but only see possiblities for attributes applied to assemblies, members etc. I'm also open to alternative methods for achieving the same thing!

Answer 1

There doesn't seem to be an overload of Attribute.IsDefined that takes a Type.

Instead, You can call Type.GetCustomAttributes:

if (typeof(SomeClass).GetCustomAttributes(typeof(SomeAttribute), false).Length > 0)
