How to display methods and properties using reflection in C#?
Reflection is the process of describing the metadata of types, methods and fields in a code. The namespace System.Reflection enables you to obtain data about the loaded assemblies, the elements within them like classes, methods and value types. There are numerous classes of System.Reflection but the most commonly used ones are Assembly, AssemblyName, ConstructorInfo, MethodInfo, ParameterInfo, EventInfo, PropertyInfo, and MemberInfo.
Example
static void Main(string[] args){ TypeInfo myType = typeof(TextInfo).GetTypeInfo(); IEnumerable<PropertyInfo> properties = myType.DeclaredProperties; IEnumerable<MethodInfo> methods = myType.DeclaredMethods; Console.WriteLine(myType); Console.WriteLine(properties); Console.WriteLine(methods); StringBuilder strBuilder = new StringBuilder(); Console.WriteLine(); strBuilder.Append("The properties are:"); foreach (PropertyInfo p in properties){ strBuilder.Append("
" + p.Name); } strBuilder.Append("
"); strBuilder.Append("
The methods are:"); foreach (MethodInfo m in methods){ strBuilder.Append("
" + m.Name); } Console.WriteLine(strBuilder); }
Output
System.Globalization.TextInfo System.Reflection.PropertyInfo[] System.Reflection.MethodInfo[] The properties are: Invariant ANSICodePage OEMCodePage MacCodePage EBCDICCodePage LCID CultureName IsReadOnly ListSeparator IsAsciiCasingSameAsInvariant IsRightToLeft The methods are: get_Invariant get_ANSICodePage get_OEMCodePage get_MacCodePage get_EBCDICCodePage get_LCID get_CultureName get_IsReadOnly get_ListSeparator set_ListSeparator get_IsAsciiCasingSameAsInvariant get_IsRightToLeft System.Runtime.Serialization.IDeserializationCallback.OnDeserialization Clone ReadOnly VerifyWritable SetReadOnlyState ToLower ToLower ChangeCase ChangeCaseToLower ChangeCaseToUpper ChangeCaseCommon ChangeCaseCommon ChangeCaseCommon ToLowerAsciiInvariant ToLowerAsciiInvariant ToUpperAsciiInvariant ToUpperAsciiInvariant ToLowerAsciiInvariant ToUpper ToUpper ToUpperAsciiInvariant IsAscii PopulateIsAsciiCasingSameAsInvariant Equals GetHashCode ToString ToTitleCase AddNonLetter AddTitlecaseLetter IsWordSeparator IsLetterCategory FinishInitialization ChangeCase IsInvariantLocale
