One very useful feature related to Reflection is the ability to create objects dynamically and call methods on them. note : Class1.cs has methods which will be dynamically invoked at runtime from the DynaInvoke.cs
Class1.cs
using System; class Class1{ public static String method1() { return "I am Static method (method1) in class1"; } public String method2() { return "I am a Instance Method (method2) in Class1"; } public String method3(String s) { return "Hello " + s; } } save this file as Class1.cs and Compile c:/>csc /t:library Class1.cs
DynaInvoke.cs
using System; using System.Reflection; class DynamicInvoke { public static void Main(String [] args) {
String path = "Class1.dll" Assembly a = Assembly.Load(path);
//Invoking a static method Type mm = a.GetType("Class1"); String i = (String) mm.InvokeMember ("method1",BindingFlags.Default | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod,null,null,new object [] {}); Console.WriteLine(i);
//Invoking a non-static method object o = Activator.CreateInstance(mm); i = (String) mm.InvokeMember("method2",BindingFlags.Default | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod,null,o,new object [] {}); Console.WriteLine(i);
//Invoking a non-static method with parameters object [] par = new object[] {"kunal"}; i = (String) mm.InvokeMember("method3",BindingFlags.Default | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod,null,o,par); Console.WriteLine(i); } }
save this file as DynaInvoke.cs and Compile c:/>csc DynaInvoke.cs and run C:\>DynaInvoke
