Hidden members in the property browser

[Mike Gustafson]

In the object browser you can right click and select show hidden members. How do I make a property hidden in .net. In VB6 you could do it from the properties dialog.

I assume it is an attribute but cannot find anything in msdn on how to do this.


Thanks,

Try the <Browsable(False)> attribute on the property.

Thanks but this is not it. The browsable atribute is to allow browsing of the property if you view the object in the property browser control.

In that case what (or who) are you trying to hide the property from?

I found the solution, just use the following attribute

<EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Advanced)>
