Syntax

public static class Method

Methods

Get(String, Boolean)

Reflects instance parameterless method without return type as delegate type Action<T>.

Declaration

public static Method<Action<T>> Get(string methodName, bool nonPublic = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<Action<T>>	The reflected method; otherwise, null if method doesn't exist.

Get<TSignature>(String, MethodLookup, Boolean)

Reflects class method.

Declaration

public static Method<TSignature> Get<TSignature>(string methodName, MethodLookup methodType, bool nonPublic = false)

    where TSignature : MulticastDelegate

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
MethodLookup	methodType	The type of the method to be resolved.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<TSignature>	The reflected method; otherwise, null if method doesn't exist.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TSignature	The delegate describing signature of the requested method.

Remarks

This method supports special types of delegates: Function<T, TArgs, TResult> or Procedure<T, TArgs> for instance methods, Function<TArgs, TResult> or Procedure<TArgs> for static methods. The value returned by this method is cached by the given delegate type and method name. Two calls of this method with the same arguments will return the same object.

Get<TResult>(String, Boolean)

Reflects instance parameterless method which as delegate type Func<T,TResult>.

Declaration

public static Method<Func<T, TResult>> Get<TResult>(string methodName, bool nonPublic = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<Func<T, TResult>>	The reflected method; otherwise, null if method doesn't exist.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TResult	The method return type.

GetStatic(String, Boolean)

Reflects static parameterless method without return type as delegate type Action.

Declaration

public static Method<Action> GetStatic(string methodName, bool nonPublic = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<Action>	The reflected method; otherwise, null if method doesn't exist.

GetStatic<TResult>(String, Boolean)

Reflects static parameterless method which as delegate type Func<TResult>.

Declaration

public static Method<Func<TResult>> GetStatic<TResult>(string methodName, bool nonPublic = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<Func<TResult>>	The reflected method; otherwise, null if method doesn't exist.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TResult	The method return type.

Require(String, Boolean)

Reflects instance parameterless method without return type as delegate type Action<T>.

Declaration

public static Method<Action<T>> Require(string methodName, bool nonPublic = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<Action<T>>	The reflected method.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
MissingMethodException	The requested method doesn't exist.

Require<TSignature>(String, MethodLookup, Boolean)

Reflects class method.

Declaration

public static Method<TSignature> Require<TSignature>(string methodName, MethodLookup methodType, bool nonPublic = false)

    where TSignature : MulticastDelegate

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	methodName	The name of the method.
MethodLookup	methodType	The type of the method to be resolved.
Boolean	nonPublic	true to reflect non-public method.

Returns

Type	Description
Method<TSignature>	The reflected method.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TSignature	The delegate describing signature of the requested method.

Remarks

This method supports special types of delegates: Function<T, TArgs, TResult> or Procedure<T, TArgs> for instance methods, Function<TArgs, TResult> or Procedure<TArgs> for static methods. The value returned by this method is cached by the given delegate type and method name. Two calls of this method with the same arguments will return the same object.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
MissingMethodException	The requested method doesn't exist.
