EnumBuilder.InvokeMember Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Reflection.Emit

Assembly:

System.Reflection.Emit.dll

Invokes the specified member. The method that is to be invoked must be accessible and provide the most specific match with the specified argument list, under the constraints of the specified binder and invocation attributes.

public:
 override System::Object ^ InvokeMember(System::String ^ name, System::Reflection::BindingFlags invokeAttr, System::Reflection::Binder ^ binder, System::Object ^ target, cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ args, cli::array <System::Reflection::ParameterModifier> ^ modifiers, System::Globalization::CultureInfo ^ culture, cli::array <System::String ^> ^ namedParameters);

public override object? InvokeMember (string name, System.Reflection.BindingFlags invokeAttr, System.Reflection.Binder? binder, object? target, object?[]? args, System.Reflection.ParameterModifier[]? modifiers, System.Globalization.CultureInfo? culture, string[]? namedParameters);

override this.InvokeMember : string * System.Reflection.BindingFlags * System.Reflection.Binder * obj * obj[] * System.Reflection.ParameterModifier[] * System.Globalization.CultureInfo * string[] -> obj

Public Overrides Function InvokeMember (name As String, invokeAttr As BindingFlags, binder As Binder, target As Object, args As Object(), modifiers As ParameterModifier(), culture As CultureInfo, namedParameters As String()) As Object

Parameters

name

String

The name of the member to invoke. This can be a constructor, method, property, or field. A suitable invocation attribute must be specified. Note that it is possible to invoke the default member of a class by passing an empty string as the name of the member.

invokeAttr

BindingFlags

The invocation attribute. This must be a bit flag from BindingFlags.

binder

Binder

An object that enables the binding, coercion of argument types, invocation of members, and retrieval of MemberInfo objects using reflection. If binder is null, the default binder is used. See Binder.

target

Object

The object on which to invoke the specified member. If the member is static, this parameter is ignored.

args

Object[]

An argument list. This is an array of objects that contains the number, order, and type of the parameters of the member to be invoked. If there are no parameters this should be null.

modifiers

ParameterModifier[]

An array of the same length as args with elements that represent the attributes associated with the arguments of the member to be invoked. A parameter has attributes associated with it in the metadata. They are used by various interoperability services. See the metadata specs for details such as this.

culture

CultureInfo

An instance of CultureInfo used to govern the coercion of types. If this is null, the CultureInfo for the current thread is used. (Note that this is necessary to, for example, convert a string that represents 1000 to a double value, since 1000 is represented differently by different cultures.)

namedParameters

String[]

Each parameter in the namedParameters array gets the value in the corresponding element in the args array. If the length of args is greater than the length of namedParameters, the remaining argument values are passed in order.

Returns

Object

Returns the return value of the invoked member.

Exceptions

NotSupportedException

This method is not currently supported in types that are not complete.

Remarks

You can retrieve the type using Type.GetType or Assembly.GetType and use reflection on the retrieved type.
