Type.GetMethod Method (String)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Searches for the public method with the specified name.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetMethod ( _
    name As String _
) As MethodInfo

public MethodInfo GetMethod(
    string name
)

Parameters

name
Type: System.String
The String containing the name of the public method to get.

Return Value

Type: System.Reflection.MethodInfo
A MethodInfo object representing the public method with the specified name, if found; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
AmbiguousMatchException	More than one method is found with the specified name.
ArgumentNullException	name is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The search for name is case-sensitive. The search includes public static and public instance methods.

Note:
You cannot omit parameters when looking up constructors and methods. You can only omit parameters when invoking.

If the current T:System.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.

Note:
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.

Examples

The following example gets a method named MethodA.

Note:
To run this example, see Building Examples That Use a Demo Method and a TextBlock Control.


Imports System.Reflection

Class Example

   ' Method to get:
   Public Sub MethodA()
   End Sub


   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)

      ' Get MethodA()
      Dim mInfo As MethodInfo = GetType(Example).GetMethod("MethodA")
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Found method: {0}", mInfo) & vbCrLf

   End Sub
End Class


using System;
using System.Reflection;

class Example
{

   // Method to get:
   public void MethodA() { }


   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {

      // Get MethodA()
      MethodInfo mInfo = typeof(Example).GetMethod("MethodA");
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Found method: {0}", mInfo) + "\n";

   }
}
