Question

I’ve got a class that looks something like this:

public class Parent {     public class Subclass     {     } } 

and using reflection I’m trying to find the subclass

void main {     Parent p = new Parent();     Type t = p.GetType();     Type s = t.GetNestedType('Subclass'); //s is not set } 

This doesn’t work because there apparently are no nested types. How can I find the type of the subclass? The reason I need to get s is to later call .GetMethod(‘someMethod’).Invoke(…) on it.

I just tried the exact same thing, and it worked for me:

    public class ParentClass     {         public class NestedClass         {          }     }         private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             Type t = typeof(ParentClass);             Type t2 = t.GetNestedType('NestedClass');             MessageBox.Show(t2.ToString());         } 

Are you sure the NestedClass is public?
