Remarks
Although the default binder does not process ParameterModifier (the modifiers
parameter), you can use the abstract System.Reflection.Binder class to write a custom binder that does process modifiers
. ParameterModifier
is only used when calling through COM interop, and only parameters that are passed by reference are handled.
The following table shows what members of a base class are returned by the GetXXX
methods when reflecting on a type.
Member Type
Static
Non-Static
Event
Not applicable
The common type system rule is that the inheritance is the same as that of the methods that implement the property. Reflection treats properties as hide-by-name-and-signature. See note 2 below.
Method
Yes. A method (both virtual and non-virtual) can be hide-by-name or hide-by-name-and-signature.
Nested Type
Property
Not applicable
The common type system rule is that the inheritance is the same as that of the methods that implement the property. Reflection treats properties as hide-by-name-and-signature. See note 2 below.
Hide-by-name-and-signature considers all of the parts of the signature, including custom modifiers, return types, parameter types, sentinels, and unmanaged calling conventions. This is a binary comparison.
For reflection, properties and events are hide-by-name-and-signature. If you have a property with both a get and a set accessor in the base class, but the derived class has only a get accessor, the derived class property hides the base class property, and you will not be able to access the setter on the base class.
Custom attributes are not part of the common type system.
The following BindingFlags filter flags can be used to define which methods to include in the search:
You must specify either BindingFlags.Instance
or BindingFlags.Static
in order to get a return.
Specify BindingFlags.Public
to include public methods in the search.
Specify BindingFlags.NonPublic
to include nonpublic methods (that is, private, internal, and protected methods) in the search.
Specify BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy
to include public
and protected
static members up the hierarchy; private
static members in inherited classes are not included.
The following BindingFlags modifier flags can be used to change how the search works:
BindingFlags.IgnoreCase
to ignore the case of name
.
BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly
to search only the methods declared on the Type, not methods that were simply inherited.
See System.Reflection.BindingFlags for more information.
You cannot omit parameters when looking up constructors and methods. You can only omit parameters when invoking.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the MethodInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the methods of the class constraint, or the methods of Object if there is no class constraint.
For generic methods, do not include the type arguments in name
. For example, the C# code GetMember("MyMethod<int>")
searches for a member with the text name "MyMethod<int>
", rather than for a method named MyMethod
that has one generic argument of type int
.

End Class
Remarks
The following BindingFlags filter flags can be used to define which methods to include in the search:
You must specify either BindingFlags.Instance or BindingFlags.Static in order to get a return.
Specify BindingFlags.Public to include public methods in the search.
Specify BindingFlags.NonPublic to include non-public methods (that is, private, internal, and protected methods) in the search.
Specify BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy to include public
and protected
static members up the hierarchy; private
static members in inherited classes are not included.
The following BindingFlags modifier flags can be used to change how the search works:
BindingFlags.IgnoreCase to ignore the case of name
.
BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly to search only the methods declared on the Type, not methods that were simply inherited.
See System.Reflection.BindingFlags for more information.
If a method is overloaded and more than one overload meets the constraints specified by the bindingAttr
argument, the method throws an AmbiguousMatchException exception. In the following example, an exception is thrown because:
The TestClass
type has two public instance overloads of the DisplayValue
method, DisplayValue(String)
and DisplayValue(String, Object[])
.
The TestClass
type has two public instance overloads of the Equals
method, one of which is inherited from Object: Equals(TestClass)
and Equals(Object)
.

You can do one of the following to retrieve a specific method:
Change the binding constraints. In the previous example, attempting to retrieve a public instance Equals
method that is declared by the type and not inherited successfully retrieves Equals(TestClass)
.
Call an overload of the GetMethod method that includes a types
parameter which defines the types of the method's parameters.
Call the GetMethods(BindingFlags) method to retrieve an array containing all of the methods belonging to a type that have the specified binding attributes. You can then iterate it to identify the duplicate methods named name
. This approach is illustrated in the previous example's handler for the AmbiguousMatchException exception.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the MethodInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the methods of the class constraint, or the methods of Object if there is no class constraint.
For generic methods, do not include the type arguments in name
. For example, the C# code GetMember("MyMethod<int>")
searches for a member with the text name "MyMethod<int>
", rather than for a method named MyMethod
that has one generic argument of type int
.

The example defines a GetAddMethod
method that retrieves the appropriate MethodInfo object. To provide the types
argument for an open generic type, it calls the Type.GetGenericArguments method. To provide the types
argument for a closed generic type, it retrieves the value of the Type.GenericTypeArguments property.
Remarks
The search for name
is case-sensitive. The search includes public static and public instance methods.
You cannot omit parameters when looking up constructors and methods. You can only omit parameters when invoking.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the MethodInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the methods of the class constraint, or the methods of Object if there is no class constraint.
The name
parameter cannot include type arguments. For example, the C# code GetMethod("MyGenericMethod<int>")
searches for a method with the text name "MyGenericMethod<int>
", rather than for a method named MyGenericMethod
that has one generic argument of type int
. Instead, use GetMethod("MyGenericMethod")
with the appropriate parameter in the types
array.

Remarks
The search for name
is case-sensitive. The search includes public static and public instance methods.
If a method is overloaded and has more than one public method, the GetMethod(String) method throws an AmbiguousMatchException exception. In the following example, an exception is thrown because there is more than one public overload of the Int32.ToString method. On the other hand, because the Person.ToString
method overrides Object.ToString and therefore is not overloaded, the GetMethod(String) method is able to retrieve the MethodInfo object.
using System;
using System.Reflection;

public String FirstName;
public String LastName;
public override String ToString()
return (FirstName + " " + LastName).Trim();

' The example displays the following output:

You can do one of the following to retrieve a specific method:
Call the GetMethod(String, BindingFlags) method and specify a bindingAttr
argument that uniquely identifies the method. For example, if the exception is thrown because a type has a static and an instance overload, you can specify a bindingAttr
argument of BindingFlags.InstanceOr
BindingFlags.Instance.
Call an overload of the GetMethod method that includes a types
parameter which defines the types of the method's parameters.
Call the GetMethods() method to retrieve an array containing all of the public methods belonging to a type. You can then iterate it to identify the duplicate methods named name
.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the MethodInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the methods of the class constraint, or the methods of Object if there is no class constraint.
For generic methods, do not include the type arguments in name
. For example, the C# code GetMember("MyMethod<int>")
searches for a member with the text name "MyMethod<int>
", rather than for a method named MyMethod
that has one generic argument of type int
.

Public Function GetMethod (name As String, types As Type(), modifiers As ParameterModifier()) As MethodInfo
Parameters
An array of Type objects representing the number, order, and type of the parameters for the method to get.
An empty array of Type objects (as provided by the EmptyTypes field) to get a method that takes no parameters.
An array of ParameterModifier objects representing the attributes associated with the corresponding element in the types
array. To be only used when calling through COM interop, and only parameters that are passed by reference are handled. The default binder does not process this parameter.
Returns
An object representing the public method that matches the specified requirements, if found; otherwise, null
.
Implements
GetMethod(String, Type[], ParameterModifier[])
Remarks
Although the default binder does not process ParameterModifier (the modifiers
parameter), you can use the abstract System.Reflection.Binder class to write a custom binder that does process modifiers
. ParameterModifier
is only used when calling through COM interop, and only parameters that are passed by reference are handled.
The search for name
is case-sensitive. The search includes public static and public instance methods.
You cannot omit parameters when looking up constructors and methods. You can only omit parameters when invoking.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the MethodInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the methods of the class constraint, or the methods of Object if there is no class constraint.
For generic methods, do not include the type arguments in name
. For example, the C# code GetMethod("MyMethod<int>")
searches for a member with the text name "MyMethod<int>
", rather than for a method named MyMethod
that has one generic argument of type int
. Instead, use GetMethod("MyMethod")
with the appropriate parameter in the types
array.
