HI Kris,
Well if you have a confirmed bug please report it at bugzilla.
Anyway, I wouldn't use a try-fail-backtrack-try_diferently process to
approach this coding problem.
I would use the method FindMembers:
Button b = new Button ("I am a button");
MemberInfo[] arrayMemberInfo = b.GetType().FindMembers(MemberTypes.Method |
MemberTypes.Property,
BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance,
Type.FilterName,
"ModifyBg");
if (arrayMemberInfo == null || arrayMemberInfo.Length == 0)
// throw some error here, about not having the appropriate member
if (arrayMemberInfo.Length > 1)
// throw some error here, about having overloads
// or look for the one with appropriate parameters
if (arrayMemberInfo[0] is PropertyInfo) {
PropertyInfo pInfo = arrayMemberInfo[0] as PropertyInfo;
System.Object[] args= new System.Object[2];
args[0] = StateType.Normal;
args[1] = new Gdk.Color(255,0,0);
pInfo.SetValue(b, args, null);
} else {
// do as a method here
}
Hope it helps,
