IsRecursive

Gets a value indicating whether this instance is recursive. (Inherited from ISymbol.)

IsReference

Indicates that the IInstance represents a Reference type (REFERENCE TO) (Inherited from IInstance.)

IsStatic

Gets a value indicating whether this IInstance is static. (Inherited from IInstance.)

NotificationSettings

Gets or sets the notification settings.

Parent

Gets the parent Symbol (Inherited from ISymbol.)

Size

Gets the size of the object in bytes or Bits dependant on IsBitType (Inherited from IBitSize.)

SubSymbols

Gets the SubSymbols of the ISymbol (Inherited from ISymbol.)

TypeName

Gets the name of the DataType that is used for this IInstance. (Inherited from IInstance.)
