Example

The following example creates a class with two public methods and one protected method, creates a Type object corresponding to MyTypeClass, gets all public and non-public methods, and displays their names.

using System;//from   www.j  a v a 2s  . co  m
using System.Reflection;
using System.Reflection.Emit;

public class MyTypeClass
{
    public void MyMethods()
    {
    }
    public int MyMethods1() 
    {
        return 3;
    }
    protected String MyMethods2()
    {
        return "hello";
    }
}
public class TypeMain
{
    public static void Main() 
    {
        Type myType =(typeof(MyTypeClass));
        MethodInfo[] myArrayMethodInfo = myType.GetMethods(BindingFlags.Public|BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly);
        Console.WriteLine(myArrayMethodInfo.Length);

    }
}

The code above generates the following result.
