Type.GetMethod("GetMethod") does work

#1

Hi,

I have a Type reference and I want to actually get the MethodInfo for the
method GetMethod, but it comes back as null. I am assuming that GetMethod
works on the class it is the type for, and only searchs that class rather
than the system part of type. It seems like I need a Meta-Type to allow me
to access the MethodInfo for GetMethod. Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks!

Nick.

Do you mean

typeof(System.Type).GetMethod("GetMethod")

Not for me:

typeof(System.Type).GetMethod("System.Type.GetMeth od");

Returns a null reference......

That's because System.Type.GetMethod isn't the name of the method -
GetMethod is the name of the method.
