Hi there,

I wonder how to get a MethodInfo using System.Reflection.Type::GetMethod
when the method has a parameter which is a generic method parameter.

Consider this method:

void MyMethod<T>( T myParam) { ... }

I would like to use the GetMethod method to return the MethodInfo
corresponding to MyMethod. The signature of GetMethod is:

public sealed MethodInfo GetMethod(
string name,
BindingFlags bindingAttr,
Binder binder,
Type[] types,
ParameterModifier[] modifiers
);

The problem is: how to construct the 'types' argument since the 'myParams'
parameter is of a generic method parameter (!!0). If I had the MethodInfo, I
would make methodInfo.GetGenericArguments() to get the Type of 'myParam',
but obviously I cannot use this technique since I do not have the MethodInfo
at the moment where I want to get the type of the argument. There is a kind
of hen-or-egg problem.

There are of course workarounds, for instance using GetMethods() and
iterating.

But has anyone an idea how to solve this "cleanly"? Any suggestion would be
helpful.

Thank you.
