public sealed class HierarchicalOptionsAttribute : AttributeRemarks
By default, hierarchical options are inherited along all axes: from base types to derived types, from base members to overriding members, from enclosing types to nested types, and from declaring types to their members. This attribute allows aspect authors to disable inheritance along specific axes when the default behavior is not appropriate for their options.
For example, an aspect might want options to be inherited from a type to its members, but not from a base type to derived types.
This can be achieved by setting InheritedByDerivedTypes to false while leaving other properties as true.
