How to get a Static property with Reflection

Question

Or just look at this...

Type type = typeof(MyClass); // MyClass is static class with static properties
foreach (var p in type.GetProperties())
{
   var v = p.GetValue(null, null); // static classes cannot be instanced, so use null...
}

This is C#, but should give you the idea:

public static void Main() {
    typeof(Program).GetProperty("GetMe", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Static);
}

private static int GetMe {
    get { return 0; }
}

(you need to OR NonPublic and Static only)

A little clarity...

// Get a PropertyInfo of specific property type(T).GetProperty(....)
PropertyInfo propertyInfo;
propertyInfo = typeof(TypeWithTheStaticProperty)
    .GetProperty("NameOfStaticProperty", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static); 

// Use the PropertyInfo to retrieve the value from the type by not passing in an instance
object value = propertyInfo.GetValue(null, null);

// Cast the value to the desired type
ExpectedType typedValue = (ExpectedType) value;

Ok so the key for me was to use the .FlattenHierarchy BindingFlag. I don't really know why I just added it on a hunch and it started working. So the final solution that allows me to get Public Instance or Static Properties is:

obj.GetType.GetProperty(propName, Reflection.BindingFlags.Public _
  Or Reflection.BindingFlags.Static Or Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance Or _
  Reflection.BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy)

myType.GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static |  BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy);

This will return all static properties in static base class or a particular type and probably the child as well.
