Can you add a constraint that the Attribute can only be added to a property with public getter and setter in C#

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22367299

Question

In C#, you can limit the scope of an attribute with the AttributeTargetAttribute. This constraint is checked at compile time.

Is there a way to force that if the target is a AttributeTargets.Property, that both the getter and setter must be public?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Not at compile-time. If you did this via reflection in the attribute, then you could enforce it at runtime. My question is: why do you want to enforce this?
