I've received no answers to two postings in FreeForAll...

I've received a bug report on my book that has me baffled. I have two
examples, the first uses GetType to get a type and then GetMembers on that
type instance; works fine. The second gets the type and then uses
FindMembers. This used to work but no longer does. I've checked the
documentation and I can not figure out what is wrong. Here is the code...

namespace Programming_CSharp
{
using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Tester
{
public static void Main()
{
// examine a single object
Type theType &# T;ype.GetType(
"System.Reflection.Assembly");

// just members which are methods beginning with Get
MemberInfo[] mbrInfoArray theType.FindMembers(MemberTypes.Method,
BindingFlags.Default,
Type.FilterName, "Get*"); // this no longer gets any
members!

foreach (MemberInfo mbrInfo in mbrInfoArray )
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} is a {1}",
mbrInfo, mbrInfo.MemberType);
}
}
}
}

Here you go . BUG Tested :-)
You *need* to specify the proper BindingFlags for this to work!! Also
the Instance and Declared BindingFlags are most important .other are
needed too

namespace Programming_CSharp
{
using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Tester
{
public static void Main()
{
// examine a single object
Type theType &# T;ype.GetType(
"System.Reflection.Assembly");

Console.WriteLine(theType);
// just members which are methods beginning with Get
MemberInfo[] mbrInfoArray theType.FindMembers(MemberTypes.Method,
BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static |
BindingFlags.NonPublic |BindingFlags.Instance |
BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly,
Type.FilterName, "Get*"); // this works!

foreach (MemberInfo mbrInfo in mbrInfoArray )
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} is a {1}",
mbrInfo, mbrInfo.MemberType);
}
}
}
}
