So what I have right now is something like this:

PropertyInfo[] info = obj.GetType().GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public);

where obj is some object.

The problem is some of the properties I want aren’t in obj.GetType() they’re in one of the base classes further up. If I stop the debugger and look at obj, the I have to dig through a few ‘base’ entries to see the properties I want to get at. Is there some binding flag I can set to have it return those or do I have to recursively dig through the Type.BaseType hierarchy and do GetProperties on all of them?

  1. Use this:

    PropertyInfo[] info = obj.GetType().GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance);

    EDIT: Of course the correct answer is that of Jay. GetProperties() without parameters is equivalent to GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static ). The BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy plays no role here.
