## Remarks
 The <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> class represents a method of a type. You can use a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object to obtain information about the method that the object represents and to invoke the method. For example:

- You can determine the method's visibility by retrieving the values of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsFamilyAndAssembly%2A>, <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsFamilyOrAssembly%2A>, <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsPrivate%2A>, and <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsPublic%2A> properties.

- You can discover what attributes are applied to the method by retrieving the value of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.Attributes%2A> property or calling the <xref:System.Reflection.Assembly.GetCustomAttributes%2A> method.

- You can determine whether the method is a generic method, an open constructed generic method, or a closed constructed generic method, by retrieving the values of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsGenericMethod%2A> and <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.ContainsGenericParameters%2A> properties.

- You can get information about the method's parameters and return type from the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetParameters%2A> method and the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ReturnParameter%2A>, <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ReturnType%2A>, and <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ReturnTypeCustomAttributes%2A> properties.

- You can execute a method on a class instance by calling the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.Invoke%2A> method.

- You can instantiate a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents a constructed generic method from one that represents a generic method definition by calling the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A> method.

 You can instantiate a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> instances by calling the <xref:System.Type.GetMethods%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> or <xref:System.Type.GetMethod%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method, or by calling the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method of a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents a generic method definition.

 For a list of the invariant conditions for terms specific to generic methods, see the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsGenericMethod%2A> property. For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the <xref:System.Type.IsGenericType%2A> property.

## Remarks

To invoke a generic method, there must be no generic type definitions or open constructed types in the type arguments of the method itself, or in any enclosing types.
Making this recursive determination can be difficult. For convenience, and to reduce the chance of error, the `ContainsGenericParameters` property provides a standard way to distinguish between closed constructed methods, which can be invoked, and open constructed methods, which cannot.
If the `ContainsGenericParameters` property returns `true`, the method cannot be invoked.

The `ContainsGenericParameters` property searches recursively for type parameters.
For example, it returns `true` for any method in an open type `A<T>`, even though the method itself is not generic.
Contrast this with the behavior of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.IsGenericMethod> property, which returns `false` for such a method.

For a list of the invariant conditions for terms specific to generic methods, see the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.IsGenericMethod> property.
For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the <xref:System.Type.IsGenericType> property.

## Remarks
 The <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns the first definition of the specified method in the class hierarchy. You can determine the type on which the first definition of the method is found by retrieving the value of the <xref:System.Reflection.MemberInfo.DeclaringType%2A> property on the returned <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object.

 The <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method behaves as follows:

- If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object represents an interface implementation, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object.

- If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object represents a method that overrides a virtual definition in a base class, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents the virtual definition.

- If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object represents a method that is specified with the `new` keyword in C# or the `Shadows` keyword in Visual Basic (as in `newslot`, as described in [Common Type System](/dotnet/standard/base-types/common-type-system)), the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object.

- If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object represents an inherited method (that is, the current method does not provide its own implementation), the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents the lowest method in the class hierarchy. For example, if `Base.ToString` overrides `Object.ToString`, and `Derived.ToString` overrides `Base.ToString`, calling the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method on a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents `Derived.ToString` returns a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents `Object.ToString`.

- If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object represents a method that is not present in any base class, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method returns the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object.

 You can determine whether the current method overrides a method in a base class by calling the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method. The following example implements an `IsOverride` method that does this.

 :::code language="csharp" source="~/snippets/csharp/System.Reflection/MethodBase/IsVirtual/IsOverride1.cs" id="Snippet2":::
 :::code language="vb" source="~/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_CLR_System/system.reflection.methodinfo.getbasedefinition/vb/IsOverride1.vb" id="Snippet2":::

 To call the `GetBaseDefinition` method:

1.  Get a <xref:System.Type> object that represents the type (the class or structure) that contains the property. If you are working with an object (an instance of a type), you can call its <xref:System.Object.GetType%2A> method. Otherwise, you can use the C#  operator or the Visual Basic [GetType](/dotnet/visual-basic/language-reference/operators/gettype-operator) operator, as the example illustrates.

2.  Get a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents the method in which you're interested. You can do this by getting an array of all methods from the <xref:System.Type.GetMethods%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method and then iterating the elements in the array, or you can retrieve the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents the method directly by calling the <xref:System.Type.GetMethod%28System.String%29?displayProperty=nameWithType> method and specifying the method name.

3.  Call the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method to get the value of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object that represents the base method definition.



## Examples
 The following example demonstrates the behavior of the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetBaseDefinition%2A> method.

## Remarks
 The elements of the returned array are in the order in which they appear in the list of type parameters for the generic method.

- If the current method is a closed constructed method (that is, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.ContainsGenericParameters%2A> property returns `false`), the array returned by the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericArguments%2A> method contains the types that have been assigned to the generic type parameters of the generic method definition.

- If the current method is a generic method definition, the array contains the type parameters.

- If the current method is an open constructed method (that is, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.ContainsGenericParameters%2A> property returns `true`) in which specific types have been assigned to some type parameters and type parameters of enclosing generic types have been assigned to other type parameters, the array contains both types and type parameters. Use the <xref:System.Type.IsGenericParameter%2A> property to tell them apart. For a demonstration of this scenario, see the code example for the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.ContainsGenericParameters%2A> property.

 For a list of the invariant conditions for terms specific to generic methods, see the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsGenericMethod%2A> property. For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the <xref:System.Type.IsGenericType%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> property.

## Remarks
 A generic method definition is a template from which methods can be constructed. For example, from the generic method definition `T M<T>(T t)` (expressed in C# syntax; `Function M(Of T)(ByVal tVal As T) As T` in Visual Basic) you can construct and invoke the method `int M<int>(int t)` (`Function M(Of Integer)(ByVal tVal As Integer) As Integer` in Visual Basic). Given a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object representing this constructed method, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition%2A> method returns the generic method definition.

 If two constructed methods are created from the same generic method definition, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition%2A> method returns the same <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> object for both methods.

 If you call <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition%2A> on a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> that already represents a generic method definition, it returns the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo>.

 If a generic method definition includes generic parameters of the declaring type, there will be a generic method definition specific to each constructed type. For example, consider the following code:

```csharp
class B<U,V> {}
class C<T> { public B<T,S> M<S>() {...}}
```

```vb
Class B(Of U, V)
End Class
Class C(Of T)
    Public Function M(Of S)() As B(Of T, S)
        ...
    End Function
End Class
```

 In the constructed type `C<int>` (`C(Of Integer)` in Visual Basic), the generic method `M` returns `B<int, S>`. In the open type `C<T>`, `M` returns `B<T, S>`. In both cases, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsGenericMethodDefinition%2A> property returns `true` for the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> that represents `M`, so <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A> can be called on both <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> objects. In the case of the constructed type, the result of calling <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A> is a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> that can be invoked. In the case of the open type, the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> returned by <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A> cannot be invoked.

 For a list of the invariant conditions for terms specific to generic methods, see the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodBase.IsGenericMethod%2A> property. For a list of the invariant conditions for other terms used in generic reflection, see the <xref:System.Type.IsGenericType%2A> property.



## Examples
 The following code example shows a class with a generic method and the code required to obtain a <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> for the method, bind the method to type arguments, and get the original generic type definition back from the bound method.

 This example is part of a larger example provided for the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod%2A> method.

          If the method or constructor represented by this instance takes a <see langword="ref" /> parameter (<see langword="ByRef" /> in Visual Basic), no special attribute is required for that parameter in order to invoke the method or constructor using this function. Any object in this array that is not explicitly initialized with a value will contain the default value for that object type. For reference-type elements, this value is <see langword="null" />. For value-type elements, this value is 0, 0.0, or <see langword="false" />, depending on the specific element type.</param>

## Remarks
If the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo> represents a generic method definition, then:

  - `IsGenericMethodDefinition` returns `true`.

  - For each <xref:System.Type> object in the array returned by the <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericArguments> method:

      - The <xref:System.Type.IsGenericParameter?displayProperty=nameWithType> property returns `true`.

      - The <xref:System.Type.DeclaringMethod?displayProperty=nameWithType> returns the current <xref:System.Reflection.MethodInfo>.

      - The <xref:System.Type.GenericParameterPosition?displayProperty=nameWithType> property is the same as the position of the <xref:System.Type> object in the array.

Use the `IsGenericMethodDefinition` property to determine whether type arguments have been assigned to the type parameters of a generic method. If type arguments have been assigned, the `IsGenericMethodDefinition` property returns false even if some of the type arguments are <xref:System.Type> objects that represent type parameters of enclosing types. For example, consider the following C\#, Visual Basic, and C++ code:

     ```csharp
    class C
    {
        T N<T,U>(T t, U u) {...}
        public V M<V>(V v)
        {
            return N<V,int>(v, 42);
        }
    }
    ```

  	```vb
    Class C
        Public Function N(Of T,U)(ByVal ta As T, ByVal ua As U) As T
            ...
