dotnet interop: Hi,
Is reflection (e.g. GetField) is possible on a __ComObject ?

Michael, thank you for your answer.

AFAIK, you don't do refleciont on interfaces but on objects.
So I believe your suggestion won't work, e.g.
PrpertyInfo pi = typeof(IInterface).GetProperty(fieldName,
_BindingFlags.Instance Or BindingFlags.Public);
pi.GetValue(obj,Nothing)

Hi Alex,

no, because a __ComObject means that it is just any COM object (it is
not known which interfaces the object implements). You can try to cast
it to an interface, then you can do reflection on it too.

That's right. I wrote you have to *cast* to an interface, just like this:

IInterface ii = obj as IInterface;
If (ii!=null)
{
PropertyInfo pi =
ii.GetType().GetProperty(fieldName,BindingFlags.Instance |
BindingFlags.Public);
object oValue = pi.GetValue(obj,null);
}

HTH,

Michael
