Parameters

name

A string containing the name of the property to be returned.

Returns

A System.Reflection.PropertyInfo object reflecting the public property defined on the type represented by the current instance that has the specified name. If no matching property is found, returns null .

Exceptions

Type	Reason
System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException	More than one property matching the specified criteria was found.
ArgumentNullException	name is null.

Remarks

This version of Type.GetProperty(string, System.Reflection.BindingFlags, System.Reflection.Binder, Type, Type[], System.Reflection.ParameterModifier[]) is equivalent to Type.GetPropertyImpl(string, System.Reflection.BindingFlags, System.Reflection.Binder, Type, Type[], System.Reflection.ParameterModifier[])(name, System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public, null, null, null, null).

The search for name is case-sensitive.

If the current instance represents a generic type, this method returns the System.Reflection.PropertyInfo with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.

If the current instance represents an unassigned type parameter of a generic type or method, this method searches the properties of the class constraint; the properties of all interface constraints; and the properties of any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.
