MethodBase.IsAssembly Property (System.Reflection) | Microsoft Learn

Gets a value indicating whether the potential visibility of this method or constructor is described by Assembly; that is, the method or constructor is visible at most to other types in the same assembly, and is not visible to derived types outside the assembly.

public:
 property bool IsAssembly { bool get(); };

public bool IsAssembly { get; }

member this.IsAssembly : bool

Public ReadOnly Property IsAssembly As Boolean

Property Value

true if the visibility of this method or constructor is exactly described by Assembly; otherwise, false.

Implements Examples

The following code example defines methods with varying levels of visibility, and displays the values of their IsAssembly, IsFamily, IsFamilyOrAssembly, and IsFamilyAndAssembly properties.

using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Example
{
    public void m_public() {}
    internal void m_internal() {}
    protected void m_protected() {}
    protected internal void m_protected_public() {}
    private protected void m_private_protected() {}

    public static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("\n{0,-30}{1,-18}{2}", "", "IsAssembly", "IsFamilyOrAssembly");
        Console.WriteLine("{0,-21}{1,-18}{2,-18}{3}\n",
            "", "IsPublic", "IsFamily", "IsFamilyAndAssembly");

        foreach (MethodBase m in typeof(Example).GetMethods(
            BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Public))
        {
            if (m.Name.Substring(0, 1) == "m")
            {
                Console.WriteLine("{0,-21}{1,-9}{2,-9}{3,-9}{4,-9}{5,-9}",
                    m.Name,
                    m.IsPublic,
                    m.IsAssembly,
                    m.IsFamily,
                    m.IsFamilyOrAssembly,
                    m.IsFamilyAndAssembly
                );
            }
        }
    }
}

Remarks

The actual visibility of a method is limited by the visibility of its type. The IsAssembly property might be true for a method, but if it is a method of a private nested type then the method is not visible outside the containing type.

The visibility of a method or constructor is exactly described by MethodAttributes.Assembly if the only visibility modifier is internal (Friend in Visual Basic). This property is false for methods that are protected internal in C# (Protected Friend in Visual Basic); use the IsFamilyOrAssembly property to identify such methods.
