Gets a value indicating whether the method is a generic method definition.
public:
virtual property bool IsGenericMethodDefinition { bool get(); };
public virtual bool IsGenericMethodDefinition { get; }
member this.IsGenericMethodDefinition : bool
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property IsGenericMethodDefinition As Boolean
true
if the current MethodBase object represents the definition of a generic method; otherwise, false
.
If the current MethodBase represents a generic method definition, then:
The IsGenericMethodDefinition property is true
.
For each Type object in the array returned by the GetGenericArguments method:
The Type.IsGenericParameter property is true
.
The Type.DeclaringMethod property returns the current instance.
The Type.GenericParameterPosition property is the same as the position of the Type object in the array.
Note
Generics are not supported by default; this property returns false
if not overridden in a derived class. Generic constructors are not supported in the .NET Framework version 2.0, so this property returns false
if the current instance is of type ConstructorInfo.
For a list of the invariant conditions for terms specific to generic methods, see the IsGenericMethod property. For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the Type.IsGenericType property.
