Question

class test<type>
{
    public test()
    {

    }

    public bool byteTest()
    {
        return new byte().Equals(new type()); // Error at new type()
    }   
}

I want to check whether an anonymous type is a specified type. (like byte)

Why I want to do this something similar like this is I want to limit the anonymous type. Like I just want to declare the anonymous type as a byte or integer.

It looks like you are trying to see if a type parameter (type) is instantiated as a specific type (byte). If so try the following

public bool byteTest() {
  return typeof(byte) == typeof(type);
}

The name type here refers to a generic type parameter. An anonymous type in C# refers to a value created via an anonymous type expression. Like so

var x = new { Name = "john", Age = 42 };

Note: To avoid confusion with the type Type i would choose a more standard generic argument name like T, TValue, etc …
