- Assembly
- PolyType.dll
Instructs the PolyType source generator to include T

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class|AttributeTargets.Struct, AllowMultiple = true, Inherited = false)]
[Conditional("NEVER")]
public sealed class GenerateShapeForAttribute<T> : Attribute
Type Parameters
T
The type for which shape metadata will be generated.
- Inheritance
-
GenerateShapeForAttribute<T>
- Inherited Members
Remarks
The source generator will include a static property in the annotated class pointing to the ITypeShapeProvider that was generated for the entire project.
For projects targeting .NET 8 or later, this additionally augments the class
with an implementation of IShapeable for T
.
Properties
IncludeMethods
Gets the binding flags that determine what method or event shapes should be included in the type shape.
public MethodShapeFlags IncludeMethods { get; init; }
Property Value
Remarks
This property controls how the Methods and Events collections will be populated. If left unspecified, only methods annotated with MethodShapeAttribute or EventShapeAttribute will be included.
This type can only be used to control inclusion of public methods in the shape models. Non-public methods can only be included individually via explicit attribute annotations.
Kind
Gets the kind that should be generated for the annotated type.
public TypeShapeKind Kind { get; init; }
Property Value
Remarks
Passing None will result in the generation of an IObjectTypeShape that does not contain any properties or constructors.
Exceptions
- ArgumentOutOfRangeException
The specified value is not a valid TypeShapeKind.
Marshaler
Gets a type implementing an IMarshaler<TSource, TTarget> to a surrogate type.
public Type? Marshaler { get; init; }
Property Value
Remarks
The type should have a parameterless constructor and must implement IMarshaler<TSource, TTarget> where either of the two generic types should match the annotated type.
Types that specify a Marshaler will be of shape ISurrogateTypeShape.
