C# - Retrieve Internal Member Of Nested Class By Reflection
Jun 1, 2012
I know that the MenuItem class contains an internal class named MenuItemData, which contains itself an internal member named onDrawItem. Given a MenuItem, I want to retrieve the object corresponding to the member onDrawItem. But all I manage to do is to get the FieldInfo, not the object itself.
Here is my code:
Dim obj As Object
Dim fi As FieldInfo
Dim item as System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem
Dim mType As System.Type
[Code] .....
When reaching the last line, I get an error saying something like that (it's traduced):
The field 'onDrawItem' défined in type 'System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem+MenuItemData' is not a field of the target object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem. I don't know what object to pass to the GetValue function on the last line. My goal is to remove the base eventHandler of the menuItem, named DrawItem. See this post and the function RemoveClickEventin the accepted answer for a better understanding.

I have a solution with two projects within:
Company.Project.vbproj
Company.Project.Tests.vbproj
Within the Company.Project.vbproj assembly, I have a class FriendClass.vb which scope is Friend (internal in C#).Now I wish to test this FriendClass.vb from within the Company.Project.Tests.vbproj assembly. I know about the InternalsVisibleToAttribute, but that is not an option in Visual Basic .NET 2.0, as it is only available with C#, in .NET 2.0 (see here).I would like to create myself a proxy class using this internal FriendClass from within my testing assembly, so that I could instantiate it and do the testings accordingly.

I want to retrieve private (implementation and other) methods of a class which implements an interface and also is derived from (inherits) a base class.How can I achieve this using reflection?This is wat m tryin to do. I need to view these private methods and their contents, I don't want to invoke them.
Dim assembly As System.Reflection.Assembly
Dim assemblyName As String assemblyName = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath("xyz.dll")
assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFile(assemblyName)
assembly.GetType("myClass").Getmethods(Bindings.NonPublic)
assembly.GetType("myClass").GetMethods(BindingFlags.NonPublic) isn't working

I have a WPF VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008. For some reason, Visual Studio thinks that it needs to add anImports MS.Internal.Xaml.Builtinsto every auto-generated XAML partial class (= the nameOfXamlFile.g.vb files), resulting in the following warning:warning BC40056: Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'MS.Internal.Xaml.Builtins' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.I can remove the Imports line, but, since this is an auto-generated file, it reappears every time that the project is rebuilt.

I want to created a nested class that can only be visible to and instantiated from the parent class.But I also want to be able to use an instance of the nested class through a public variable of the parent class.I tried making the nested class private, or making the nested class' constructor private, but it won't compile.Is it possible to do this in .NET?

I have a long string that has been divided into lots of smaller Strings using the following pattern:
Public Class Test
Public Prefix_1 as String = "1 to 100 bytes"
Public Prefix_2 as String = "101 to 200 bytes"
[code]....
And this Test class has been compiled as class library project (i.e. a .dll file) and saved to C:Test.dll note that I have no prior knowledge of how many Prefix_ string existed in the dll file.My question is: How to retrieve all strings that start with Prefix_ via reflection and concatenate it ascending-ly (i.e. Prefix_1 & Prefix_2 ... ) into a single string?

I'm trying to use reflection to get the instance of a class in vb.net. I have a class 'A' in my web project and to test it, i create a new aspx page and try to write the following:
Dim t as Type = Type.GetType("A")
This returns "Nothing". But if i do this:
Dim inst as A = new A()
Dim t as Type = inst.GetType()
t's type is "A"
So how come i can't get the type with GetType even if the name is exactly the same? It does works for things like System.Math though

I'm trying to use reflection to populate the properties of an array of a child property... not sure that's clear, so it's probably best explained in code:
Parent Class:
Public Class parent
Private _child As childObject()
Public Property child As childObject()
Get
Return _child
[Code] .....
The issue is now trying to get that array assigned to the parent object (using reflection). It shouldn't be difficult, but I think the problem comes because I don't necessarily know the parent/child types. I'm using reflection to determine which parent/child is being passed in. The parent always has only one property, which is an array of the child object. When I try assigning the child array to the parent object, I get a invalid cast exception saying it can't convert Object[] to.
Basically, what I have now is:
Dim PropChildInfo As PropertyInfo() = ResponseObject.GetType().GetProperties()
For Each PropItem As PropertyInfo In PropChildInfo
PropItem.SetValue(ResponseObject, ResponseChildren, Nothing)
Next
ResponseObject is an instance of the parent Class, and ResponseChildren is an array of the childObject Class.
This fails with:
Object of type 'System.Object[]' cannot be converted to type 'childObject[]'.

I know its unlikely but I was wondering if there is any way to get the comments (i.e. the bits after the ''') of a class or property..? I have managed to get a list of properties of a class using the PropertyInfo class but I cant find a way to get the comments / description.. I need it for a guide I am writing for the administrators of my site - it would be great if it could automatically update if new properties are added, so there is no need to worry about updating it in the future too much.

how to create an instance of a class then add properties to the class, set those properties, then read them later. I don't have any code as i don't even know how to start going about this. C# or VB is fine.
My system has a dynamic form creator. one of my associates requires that the form data be accessible via web service. My idea was to create a class (based on the dynamic form) add properties to the class (based on the forms fields) set those properties (based on the values input for those fields) then return the class in the web service.
additionally, the web service will be able to set the properties in the class and eventually commit those changes to the db.

Code snippet:
Dim target As Object
' target gets properly set to something of the desired type
Dim field As FieldInfo = target.GetType.GetField("fieldName", _
BindingFlags.Instance Or BindingFlags.Public Or BindingFlags.NonPublic)
field.SetValue(target,newValue)
This snippet works perfectly IF target is set to an instance of a CLASS.However, if target is set to an instance of a STRUCTURE, the code does not actually change the value of the field. No error, but the value remains unchanged.And, oddly, if I'm stepping through code, watch the SetValue fail to do anything, and immediately go to the Immediate window and type exactly the same SetValue operation, that works.
Edit:
Per request from Jon Skeet, actual code:

I am currently using reflection to retrieve all properties of a class. I return a collection of PropertyInfo objects and all is working fine.
My problem is, I want to check if a property has been defined in a base class implementation and is therefore inherited in the current class.
