Reflection and autogenerated types

Question

I have a class with a single method that uses a \"yield\" return statement. A nested type is automatically created. Using reflection with binding flags set to BindingF

Answer 1

You can test if the type has the [CompilerGenerated] attribute:

if (type.GetCustomAttribute(typeof(CompilerGeneratedAttribute), true) != null)
{
    ...
}

Alternatively, you can check if the name contains characters that wouldn't be valid in user code.
