Syntax

public static class TypeExtensions

Methods

GetAllInterfaceMethods(Type)

Gets all the methods of an interface. GetMethods() will get all the methods of a class, base and inherited. However, for interfaces it only gets the extended methods. This method will recusively find all the methods of the inherited interfaces and aggregate them. Calling this overload is equivalent to calling the GetAllInterfaceMethods(BindingFlags) overload with a bindingAttr argument equal to BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public

Declaration

public static MethodInfo[] GetAllInterfaceMethods(this Type interfaceType)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Type	interfaceType	The interface type. Ex: typeof(IMyInterface)

Returns

Type	Description
MethodInfo[]

GetAllInterfaceMethods(Type, BindingFlags)

Gets all the methods of an interface. GetMethods() will get all the methods of a class, base and inherited. However, for interfaces it only gets the extended methods. This method will recusively find all the methods of the inherited interfaces and aggregate them.

Declaration

public static MethodInfo[] GetAllInterfaceMethods(this Type interfaceType, BindingFlags bindingAttr = BindingFlags.Default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Type	interfaceType	The interface type. Ex: typeof(IMyInterface)
BindingFlags	bindingAttr	BindingFlags to use.

Returns

Type	Description
MethodInfo[]

GetAllInterfaceProperties(Type)

Gets all the properites of an interface. GetProperties() will get all the properties of a class, base and inherited. However, for interfaces it only gets the extended properties. This method will recusively find all the properties of the inherited interfaces and aggregate them. Calling this overload is equivalent to calling the GetAllInterfaceProperties(BindingFlags) overload with a bindingAttr argument equal to BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public

Declaration

public static PropertyInfo[] GetAllInterfaceProperties(this Type interfaceType)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Type	interfaceType	The interface type. Ex: typeof(IMyInterface)

Returns

Type	Description
PropertyInfo[]

GetAllInterfaceProperties(Type, BindingFlags)

Declaration

public static PropertyInfo[] GetAllInterfaceProperties(this Type interfaceType, BindingFlags bindingAttr = BindingFlags.Default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Type	interfaceType	The interface type. Ex: typeof(IMyInterface)
BindingFlags	bindingAttr	BindingFlags to use.

Returns

Type	Description
PropertyInfo[]

GetFormattedName(Type)

Gets the formatted name of the specified Type.

Declaration

public static string GetFormattedName(this Type type)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Type	type	The Type to get the formatted name for.

Returns

Type	Description
