public static bool TryInvokeMethod(
	Object instance,
	string methodName,
	Type[]? genericParameters,
	ReflectionWays way,
	out Object?? result,
	params Object?[]? parameters

Public Shared Function TryInvokeMethod (

	<OutAttribute> ByRef result As Object,
	ParamArray parameters As Object()

static member TryInvokeMethod : 
        instance : Object * 
        methodName : string *

        way : ReflectionWays *

Parameters

instance  Object

An instance whose method is about to be invoked.

methodName  String

The name of the method to be invoked.

genericParameters  Type

Type parameters if methodName is a generic method definition. Otherwise, this parameter is ignored.

way  ReflectionWays

The preferred reflection way. TypeDescriptor way is not applicable for invoking methods.

result  Object

When this method returns with result, then this parameter contains the return value of the method.

parameters  Object

The parameters to be used for invoking the method.

Return Value

methodName can refer public and non-public methods. To avoid ambiguity this method gets all of the methods of the same name and chooses the first one for which the provided genericParameters and parameters match.

If you already have a MethodInfo instance use the InvokeMethod(Object, MethodInfo, Type, ReflectionWays, Object) method for better performance.

If way is Auto, then the DynamicDelegate way will be used.
