protected attributes / retrieving

I want to make my own attributes that should only be used in derived classes
so the base class can get some metadata of fields in derived classes. for
that reason i try to define a new attribute class in my base class and use
it in the derived classes...

so far so good but when i want to retrieve the attributes with
Type.GetCustomA ttributes it doesn't work until i make the attribute class
public. Is there another way to access attributes or are protected
attributes just a thing you can apply for fun but never read out?

thx in advance,
ViperDK

I'm developing an application for medical use that will be used to capture patient background and visit data. The application will have approximately 50 forms, with an average of about 20 fields each-- so a total of 1000+ fields. Almost always, the fields are unique to a particular form--and it will be pretty unlikely that new forms and fields will be added--although not out of the realm of possibility. There will also be a search...

Hi all, I am trying to get custom attributes from a property. I can do this if I pass in the name of the property i.e. "Name" to the reflection methods, but if I pass in set_Name which is what the set piece of the Name property gets compiled to, which I am getting from the stack trace, then the attributes are not returned. For example, Class Person has a property called "Name" which has a custom attribute decorating it. Inside the set...

Hello guys, I am looking for a parser in PHP that can return all the attributes of XML entities. I know how to read the XML Entities, but I have got a problem with reading attributes. So I will appreciate if you could give a parser that can return all the Entities and Attributes of respective entities as an array. For e.g.: <?xml version="1.0" ?>

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
