Invoke(IReflectionInvocationProvider, ConstructorInfo, Object[])

Invokes the constructor reflected by the instance that has the specified parameters, providing default values for the parameters not commonly used.

Declaration

public static object Invoke(this IReflectionInvocationProvider provider, ConstructorInfo constructor, object[] parameters)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IReflectionInvocationProvider	provider	The reflection invocation provider.
System.Reflection.ConstructorInfo	constructor	The constructor to invoke.
System.Object[]	parameters	An array of values that matches the number, order and type (under the constraints of the default binder) of the parameters for this constructor. If this constructor takes no parameters, then use either an array with zero elements or null.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Object	An instance of the class associated with the constructor.

Invoke(IReflectionInvocationProvider, MethodBase, Object, Object[])

Invokes the reflected method or constructor with the given parameters.

Declaration

public static object Invoke(this IReflectionInvocationProvider provider, MethodBase method, object obj, object[] parameters)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IReflectionInvocationProvider	provider	The reflection invocation provider.
System.Reflection.MethodBase	method	The method or constructor to invoke.
System.Object	obj	The object on which to invoke the method or constructor. If a method is static, this argument is ignored. If a constructor is static, this argument must be null or an instance of the class that defines the constructor.
System.Object[]	parameters	An argument list for the invoked method or constructor. This is an array of objects with the same number, order, and type as the parameters of the method or constructor to be invoked. If there are no parameters, this should be null.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Object	An object containing the return value of the invoked method, or null in the case of a constructor, or null if the method's return type is void.

InvokeMember(IReflectionInvocationProvider, Type, String, BindingFlags, Binder, Object, Object[])

Invokes the specified member, using the specified binding constraints and matching the specified argument list.

Declaration

public static object InvokeMember(this IReflectionInvocationProvider provider, Type type, string name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, object target, object[] args)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IReflectionInvocationProvider	provider	The reflection invocation provider.
System.Type	type	The type to invoke a member on.
System.String	name	The string containing the name of the constructor, method, property, or field member to invoke.
System.Reflection.BindingFlags	invokeAttr	A bitmask comprised of one or more System.Reflection.BindingFlags that specify how the search is conducted. The access can be one of the BindingFlags such as Public, NonPublic, Private, InvokeMethod, GetField, and so on. The type of lookup need not be specified. If the type of lookup is omitted, BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static are used.
System.Reflection.Binder	binder	An object that defines a set of properties and enables binding, which can involve selection of an overloaded method, coercion of argument types, and invocation of a member through reflection. If binder is null, then System.Type.DefaultBinder is used.
System.Object	target	The object on which to invoke the specified member.
System.Object[]	args	An array containing the arguments to pass to the member to invoke.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Object	An object representing the return value of the invoked member.

Declaration

public static object InvokeMember(this IReflectionInvocationProvider provider, Type type, string name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, object target, object[] args, CultureInfo culture)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

System.Reflection.BindingFlags	invokeAttr	A bitmask comprised of one or more System.Reflection.BindingFlags that specify how the search is conducted. The access can be one of the BindingFlags such as Public, NonPublic, Private, InvokeMethod, GetField, and so on. The type of lookup need not be specified. If the type of lookup is omitted, BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static are used.
System.Reflection.Binder	binder	An object that defines a set of properties and enables binding, which can involve selection of an overloaded method, coercion of argument types, and invocation of a member through reflection. If binder is null, then System.Type.DefaultBinder is used.
System.Object	target	The object on which to invoke the specified member.
System.Object[]	args	An array containing the arguments to pass to the member to invoke.
System.Globalization.CultureInfo	culture	The System.Globalization.CultureInfo object representing the globalization locale to use, which may be necessary for locale-specific conversions, such as converting a numeric String to a Double. If this is null, the System.Globalization.CultureInfo for the current thread is used.

Returns
