MethodBase.IsGenericMethod Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets a value that indicates whether the method is generic.

Namespace:  System.Reflection
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property IsGenericMethod As Boolean
public virtual bool IsGenericMethod { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the current MethodBase represents a generic method; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Use the IsGenericMethod property to determine whether the current MethodBase object represents a generic method. Use the ContainsGenericParameters property to determine whether the current MethodBase object represents an open constructed method or a closed constructed method.

NoteNote:

Generic constructors are not supported, 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 MethodInfo.IsGenericMethod property. For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the Type.IsGenericType property.
