VB -> C# code

[Chris Becker]

Could someone please tell me what the C# equivalent of this VB.NET code is:

Dim aPropInfo() As System.Reflection.PropertyInfo

aPropInfo = GetType(System.Drawing.Color).GetProperties

This is what I came up with:

Color dummy = new Color();

System.Reflection.PropertyInfo[] aPropInfo =
dummy.GetType().GetProperties();

but maybe there is a more elegant way of getting the type without creating a
dummy Color object?

Hi Chris,

System.Reflection.PropertyInfo[] apropinfo;

apropinfo = Type.GetType( "System.Drawing.Color" ).GetProperties();

Hope this help,

Yup: typeof(Color)

Thanks to everyone who answered.

I am going with Tom's answer since it will be checked by the compiler rather
than at runtime ( I could misspell color colour)

PropertyInfo[] aPropInfo = typeof(System.Drawing.Color).GetProperties();
