Calling Attribute.GetCustomAttributes on an indexer property no longer throws AmbiguousMatchException if the ambiguity can be resolved by index's type

Change Description
Prior to the .NET Framework 4.6, calling GetCustomAttribute(s)
on an indexer
property which differed from another property only by the type of the index
would result in an
xref:System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException?displayProperty=name. Beginning
in the .NET Framework 4.6, the property's attributes will be correctly returned.
- Quirked
- Build-time break
Recommended Action
Be aware that GetCustomAttribute(s) will work more frequently now. If an app was previously relying on the xref:System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException?displayProperty=name, reflection should now be used to explicitly look for multiple indexers, instead.
