static in attributes

[Pohihihi]

In what condition attributes (class) might have static methods?

Pohihihi,

Attributes can have static methods/properties, just like any other
class. However, you have to remember that a static method/property on an
attribute will not be applicable to the type, but rather, all types.

Hope this helps.

Actually I am not understanding what you mean by

attribute will not be applicable to the type, but rather, all types

you mean it will behave like
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.All)]

??

Thanks,
Po
