Remarks

Note Note
This method returns custom attributes from the internal annotation repository of PostSharp. This repository contains more than only custom attributes added in source code. For instance, if you use MulticastAttribute to add a custom attribute to several elements of code in a single line of code, this method will return one custom attribute instance for every target of the MulticastAttribute .

Note Note
This feature is available only at build time.
