What is internal set property in c#?

Properties in C# 2.0

In C# 2.0 you can set the accessibility of get and set.

The code below shows how to create a private variable with an internal set and public get. The Hour property can now only be set from code in the same module (dll), but can be accessed by all code that uses the module (dll) that contains the class.

// private member variables
private int hour;

// create a property
public int Hour
{
  get { return hour; }
  internal set { hour = value; }
}
