Gets a value indicating whether the System.Type is abstract and must be overridden.
Gets a value indicating whether the System.Type is abstract and must be overridden.
The IsAbstract property is used to determine if a type is abstract. An abstract type cannot be instantiated directly and is typically used as a base class for other classes. This property is useful when reflecting over types to understand their characteristics and constraints.
// Example of using the IsAbstract property
TypeDescription typeDescription = TypeLibrary.GetType("SomeNamespace.SomeAbstractClass");
if (typeDescription.IsAbstract)
{
// Handle abstract type logic
Console.WriteLine($"The type {typeDescription.Name} is abstract.");
}
else
{
// Handle non-abstract type logic
Console.WriteLine($"The type {typeDescription.Name} is not abstract.");
}
