C# in a Nutshell, Second Edition

Name

FieldAttributes

Synopsis

This is an enumeration of the attributes that can be specified on a field. Assembly means that the field is internal (that is, private to the assembly); Family indicates that the field is protected. Private, Public, and Static are self-explanatory. If the field has a default value, HasDefault is marked; if a field is constant, Literal is marked. InitOnly indicates that the field can only be set on object initialization. To exclude a field from being serialized, NotSerialized should be asserted. HasFieldMarshal specifies that the field has special marshaling information.
