Usé la respuesta de Darin Dimitrov para crear una extensión genérica para obtener atributos de miembro para cualquier miembro de una clase (en lugar de atributos para una clase). Lo estoy publicando aquí porque otros pueden encontrarlo útil:
public static class AttributeExtensions
{
/// <summary>
/// Returns the value of a member attribute for any member in a class.
/// (a member is a Field, Property, Method, etc...)
/// <remarks>
/// If there is more than one member of the same name in the class, it will return the first one (this applies to overloaded methods)
/// </remarks>
/// <example>
/// Read System.ComponentModel Description Attribute from method 'MyMethodName' in class 'MyClass':
/// var Attribute = typeof(MyClass).GetAttribute("MyMethodName", (DescriptionAttribute d) => d.Description);
/// </example>
/// <param name="type">The class that contains the member as a type</param>
/// <param name="MemberName">Name of the member in the class</param>
/// <param name="valueSelector">Attribute type and property to get (will return first instance if there are multiple attributes of the same type)</param>
/// <param name="inherit">true to search this member's inheritance chain to find the attributes; otherwise, false. This parameter is ignored for properties and events</param>
/// </summary>
public static TValue GetAttribute<TAttribute, TValue>(this Type type, string MemberName, Func<TAttribute, TValue> valueSelector, bool inherit = false) where TAttribute : Attribute
{
var att = type.GetMember(MemberName).FirstOrDefault().GetCustomAttributes(typeof(TAttribute), inherit).FirstOrDefault() as TAttribute;
if (att != null)
{
return valueSelector(att);
}
return default(TValue);
}
}
Ejemplo de uso:
//Read System.ComponentModel Description Attribute from method 'MyMethodName' in class 'MyClass'
var Attribute = typeof(MyClass).GetAttribute("MyMethodName", (DescriptionAttribute d) => d.Description);
