MulticastAttribute Class

Custom attribute that can be applied to multiple elements using wildcards.

Namespace: PostSharp.Extensibility
Assembly: PostSharp.dll
Syntax
[Serializer]
public abstract class MulticastAttribute : Attribute
Remarks

Each class derived from MulticastAttribute should be decorated with an instance of MulticastAttributeUsageAttribute.

Note to implementors: The properties of this class that start with the word 'Attribute' only have an effect if they are set at the point where the attribute is used (in brackets). Setting them in the constructor of your subclass has no effect.

Multicasting is performed by the MulticastAttributeTask, which should be included in the project. After multicasting, custom attribute instances are available on the CustomAttributeDictionaryTask class.
