HasVisibleProperties(Type)
Indicates whether the Type has any public properties to get or set state.
[UnconditionalSuppressMessage("Trimming", "IL2070", Justification = "Reflection on public properties is used by compatibility paths; callers are responsible for preserving required types.")]
public static bool HasVisibleProperties(this Type type)Parameters
Returns
