I have read that reflection is particularly useful when dealing with plugins. Could someone kindly highlight the benefits in this particular situation? Both in C# or Java.
“At the highest level of abstraction, the host application must be able to load plug-ins and then communicate with plug-ins to take advantage of their designed services. Both of these tasks can be implemented in different ways depending on a developer’s choice of language and platform. If the choice is C# and .NET, then reflection can be used for loading plug-ins, and interfaces or abstract classes can be used as a means for generic communication.”
If you Google some of that you can see the article and read some more on it.
