Description

The IsGenericType property of the TypeDescription class indicates whether the described type is a generic type. A generic type is a type that has type parameters, which can be specified when the type is instantiated.

Usage

Use the IsGenericType property to determine if a type is generic. This can be useful when reflecting over types to understand their structure or when dynamically creating instances of types.

Example

// Example of using IsGenericType
TypeDescription typeDescription = TypeLibrary.GetTypeDescription(typeof(List<>));

if (typeDescription.IsGenericType)
{
    Console.WriteLine("The type is generic.");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine("The type is not generic.");
}
