This might be a stupid question, or oversight on my part, but..
If you type ‘method’ inside an attribute definition, as below:
[method: ]
public class MyClass
Visual Studio highlights the keyword. It doesn’t seem to highlight it outside of an attribute as far as I can tell, and hitting F1 in VS boots you to a 404.
I’ve never seen this actually used, and I can’t find any information on it.
Anyone know what it does?
See Disambiguating Attribute Targets (C# Programming Guide).
Basically, it’s to disambiguate between attribute applied to a method and attribute applied to the return value.
