Question

I have this code to get the default constructor:

Public Function f(ByVal t As System.Type) As Object
    Return t.GetConstructor(New System.Type() {}).Invoke(New Object() {})
End Function

I need to pass values to the Constructor as

Public Function f(ByVal t As System.Type) As Object
    Return t.GetConstructor(New System.Type() {someInteger,someString,etc.etc}).Invoke(New Object() {}) 
End Function

Also I have 3 classes of Type T, with all having different parametric constructor. It’s important for me to have it generic as the Classes of type T might increase in future with less or more parameters.

Yes, it is possible.

However, you are putting the values in the Type(). You need to specify the types of the constructor, so it knows which constructor you want to actually resolve, then pass the actual values you wish in Invoke:

Public Function f(ByVal t As System.Type) As Object
    Return t.GetConstructor(New System.Type() {GetType(Integer),GetType(String)}).Invoke(New Object() {someInteger, someString}) 
End Function
