System.Runtime.CompilerServices

The System.Runtime.CompilerServices namespace provides functionality for compiler writers using managed code to specify attributes in metadata that affect the run time behavior of the common language runtime.

This namespace is for compiler writers use only.

Classes

Class	Description
AccessedThroughPropertyAttribute	Specifies the name of the property that accesses the attributed field.
CallConvCdecl	Indicates that the Cdecl calling convention should be used for a method.
CallConvFastcall	This calling convention is not supported in this version of the .NET Framework.
CallConvStdcall	Indicates that the StdCall calling convention should be used for a method.
CallConvThiscall	Indicates that the ThisCall calling convention should be used for a method.
CompilationRelaxationsAttribute	Controls the strictness of the code generated by the common language runtime's just-in-time (JIT) compiler.
CompilerGlobalScopeAttribute	Indicates that a class should be treated as if it has global scope.
CustomConstantAttribute	Defines a constant value that a compiler can persist for a field or method parameter.
DateTimeConstantAttribute	Persists an 8-byte DateTime constant for a field or parameter.
DecimalConstantAttribute	Stores the value of a System.Decimal constant in metadata.
DiscardableAttribute	Marks a type definition as discardable.
IDispatchConstantAttribute	Indicates that the default value for the attributed field or parameter is an instance of DispatchWrapper, where the WrappedObject is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
IndexerNameAttribute	Indicates the name by which an indexer is known in programming languages that do not support indexers directly.
IsVolatile	Marks a field as volatile.
IUnknownConstantAttribute	Indicates that the default value for the attributed field or parameter is an instance of UnknownWrapper, where the WrappedObject is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
MethodImplAttribute	Specifies the details of how a method is implemented.
RequiredAttributeAttribute	Specifies that an importing compiler must fully understand the symantics of a type definition, or refuse to use it.
RuntimeHelpers	Provides a set of static methods and properties that provide support for compilers.
