MemberDescriptor is the base class for the MemberDescriptor and the MemberDescriptor classes. The PropertyDescriptor class provides a description of a property, and the EventDescriptor class provides a description of an event.
Note Typically, you inherit from the MemberDescriptor and PropertyDescriptor classes, and not from this class.
This class defines properties and methods to access its stored attributes. Attributes gets the collection of attributes. Category, IsBrowsable, Description, GetDesignTimeOnly, GetHelpURL, and GetHelpTopic retrieve the values of those specific attributes. Name and GetDisplayName give you the name of the member.
The MemberDescriptor also defines an Equals method to compares this MemberDescriptor to another.
