In C#, when specifying how an attribute class should be used, there is a GenericParameter
value in the System.AttributeTargets
enum. How can we apply such an attribute, what is the syntax ?
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets
public sealed class MyAnnotationAttribute : System.Attribute {
public string Param { get; private set; }
public MyAnnotationAttribute(string param) { Param = param; }
}
Same question goes for other exotic attribute targets, like System.AttributeTargets.Module
(I don't even know how to declare modules other than the main module???), System.AttributeTargets.Parameter
and System.AttributeTargets.ReturnValue
.
// Assembly and module
[assembly: AttributesTest.MyAnnotation("Assembly")]
[module: AttributesTest.MyAnnotation("Module")]
namespace AttributesTest
{
// The attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.All, AllowMultiple = true)]
public sealed class MyAnnotationAttribute : System.Attribute
{
public string Param { get; private set; }
public MyAnnotationAttribute(string param) { Param = param; }
}
// Types
[MyAnnotation("Class")]
public class SomeClass { }
[MyAnnotation("Delegate")]
public delegate int SomeDelegate(string s, float f);
[MyAnnotation("Enum")]
public enum SomeEnum { ValueOne, ValueTwo }
[MyAnnotation("Interface")]
public interface SomeInterface { }
[MyAnnotation("Struct")]
public struct SomeStruct { }
// Members
public class MethodsExample
{
[MyAnnotation("Constructor")]
public MethodsExample() { }
[MyAnnotation("Method")]
public int SomeMethod(short s) { return 42 + s; }
[MyAnnotation("Field")]
private int _someField;
[MyAnnotation("Property")]
public int SomeProperty {
[MyAnnotation("Method")] get { return _someField; }
[MyAnnotation("Method")] set { _someField = value; }
}
private SomeDelegate _backingField;
[MyAnnotation("Event")]
public event SomeDelegate SomeEvent {
[MyAnnotation("Method")] add { _backingField += value; }
[MyAnnotation("Method")] remove { _backingField -= value; }
}
}
// Parameters
public class ParametersExample<T1, [MyAnnotation("GenericParameter")]T2, T3>
{
public int SomeMethod([MyAnnotation("Parameter")]short s) { return 42 + s; }
}
// Return value
public class ReturnValueExample
{
[return: MyAnnotation("ReturnValue")]
public int SomeMethod(short s) {
return 42 + s;
}
}
}
