        msg += ("Name of attribute's project item: " & _  
        attrArg.ProjectItem.Name)  
        ' List the arguments for the attribute.  
        MsgBox("Attribute parameters for " & attr.Name _  
        & ": " & vbCr & msg)  
    Catch ex As System.Exception  
        MsgBox("ERROR -> " & ex.Message)  
    End Try  
End Sub  

Remarks

If it is true, then you can query interface or cast it to a CodeType object.

Note

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same. For more information, see the section Code Model Element Values Can Change in Discovering Code by Using the Code Model (Visual Basic).
