How to create duplicate allowed attributes

Question

I\'m using a custom attribute inherited from an attribute class. I\'m using it like this:

[MyCustomAttribute(\"CONTROL\")]
[MyCustomAttribute(\"ALT\")]
[MyCustom         


        

Answer 1

As an alternative, think about redesigning your attribute to allow for a sequence.

[MyCustomAttribute(Sequence="CONTROL,ALT,SHIFT,D")]

or

[MyCustomAttribute("CONTROL-ALT-SHIFT-D")]

then parse the values to configure your attribute.

For an example of this check out the AuthorizeAttribute in ASP.NET MVC source code at www.codeplex.com/aspnet.
