Using reflection you can also dynamically invoke methods using System.Type.Invokemember. Below is sample source code if needed you can also get this code from CD provided, go to “Source code” folder in “Reflection Sample” folder.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim Pobjtype As Type
Dim PobjObject As Object
Dim PobjButtons As New Windows.Forms.Button()
Pobjtype = PobjButtons.GetType()
For Each PobjObject In Pobjtype.GetMembers
LstDisplay.Items.Add(PobjObject.ToString())
Next
End Sub
End Class
Sample source code uses reflection to browse through “Button” class of “Windows.Forms”. If you compile and run the program following is output as shown in “Sample Reflection Display”.
Using reflection you can also dynamically invoke a method using “System.Type.InvokeMember”.
Note :- System.Type.InvokeMember is left as homework for readers. Believe me you will enjoy doing it yourself and the concept of reflection will be clearer.
