MemberInfo class obtains information about the attributes of a member and provides access to member metadata.

For getting list of all members within Type we can use GetMembers method:

 System.Reflection.MemberInfo[] mbrInfoArray = type.GetMembers();

Examples

Get all members withing type and output its type and name

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Reflection;

using System.Text;

​

public class Program

{

    public static void Main()

    {

        Type theType = Type.GetType("System.Reflection.Assembly" );

        Console.WriteLine("\nSingle Type is {0}\n", theType );

        MemberInfo[] mbrInfoArray =theType.GetMembers();

        foreach ( MemberInfo mbrInfo in mbrInfoArray )

        {

            Console.WriteLine( "{0}         {1}",mbrInfo.MemberType, mbrInfo.Name );

        }

    }

}

As you can see members can have different types:

• Constructor Specifies that the member is a constructor, representing a ConstructorInfo member.
• Custom Specifies that the member is a custom member type.
• Event Specifies that the member is an event, representing an EventInfo member.
• Field Specifies that the member is a field, representing a FieldInfo member. 
• Method Specifies that the member is a method, representing a MethodInfo member.
• NestedType Specifies that the member is a nested type, extending MemberInfo.
• Property Specifies that the member is a property, representing a PropertyInfo member.
• TypeInfo Specifies that the member is a type, representing a TypeInfo member. 

Some of these types we going to review in next tutorial concepts.
