Reflection in C# is a big topic in itself. I'll summarize a little list of what you can do with reflection. Get currently executing assembly, load assembly, get assembly from type Get classes declared in assemblies Get methods, properties, fields, events, constructors declared in classes Check access modifiers of classes, properties, fields and methods Get nested classes in a class ...
Assembly is the main unit in .NET applications. Assembly is a collection of types and its information. There are two types of assemblies: Executable files (EXE) Libraries (DLL) Both type of assemblies includes information about types and its members in its metadata. There are three ways to get Assembly instances: Geting assembly instance from type information Getting a...
C# reflection Type class provides two methods for getting the constructors in any Type. GetConstructors() //Returns all the constructors GetConstructor() //Returns only the specific constructor with match your given criteria. By default, all the above methods returns public constructors of a Type. To get the private, protected, and static constructors you have to use other overloaded...
A Type class is an important class in C# reflection. Type class represents class types, interface types, array types, value types, enum types, type parameters, generic type definitions, and open/closed generic types. Type class helps you to find properties, methods, events, fields, and constructors declared in a type. It also provides us the Assembly in which the type is declared. There are...
MemberInfo class provides a quick look of all the members in a Type. Below is the same code to get all members of a Type. static void Main(string[] args) { Type type = typeof(Program); foreach(MemberInfo member in type.GetMembers()) { Console.WriteLine(member.Name + ":" + member.MemberType); } } MemberInfo MemberType property MemberInfo provides a pro...
