AssemblyUtilHasCustomAttribute Method

Determine if an Assembly has a custom attribute.

Namespace:  Nova.Utilities
Assembly:  Nova.CodeDOM (in Nova.CodeDOM.dll) Version: 7.44.8391.13415
Syntax
C#
Copy
public static bool HasCustomAttribute(
	this Assembly assembly,
	string name
)

Parameters

assembly
Type: System.ReflectionAssembly
name
Type: SystemString

Return Value

Type: Boolean

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type Assembly. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Remarks
This method must be used instead of the built-in GetCustomAttributes() call when working with reflection-only assemblies (otherwise, the custom attribute type would be instantiated, which is illegal).
