给类动态添加Attribute一直是我想要解决的问题,从msdn里找了很久,到Stack Overflow看了不少文章,算是最终有了答案。
先是有这样的一段解释
Attributes are static metadata. Assemblies, modules, types, members, parameters, and return values aren't first-class objects in C# (e.g., the System.Type class is merely a reflected representation of a type). You can get an instance of an attribute for a type and change the properties if they're writable but that won't affect the attribute as it is applied to the type.
从这里看,想要实现动态添加Attribute就是不可能做到的。哈哈,被标题坑了吧。
好吧,但是我还是找到了一个东西System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor,这个号称可以添加Attribute到类、对象中去的类。TypeDescriptor里有方法:AddAttributes,可以把Attribute添加到类上。但是只有一个问题,添加上去的Attribute,只能通过TypeDescriptor来取到。
/* * 现在需要给simpleObject添加attribute */ TypeDescriptor.AddAttributes(typeof(targetObject), new simpleAttribute(new targetObject())); AttributeCollection collection = TypeDescriptor.GetAttributes(typeof(targetObject)); simpleAttribute attr = ((simpleAttribute)collection[typeof(simpleAttribute)]); if (attr != null) { MessageBox.Show(attr.ToString()); }
