Reflection For Static Class in C#

Question

I have created a Static Class and used that in Reflection. But when i accessed the Methods of that class, its showing 5 methods but i have created only 1. The extra methods are

Write
ToString
Equals
GetHashCode
GetType

But i have created only the Write methods.

One static methods can be in a static class but these extra 4 methods are not statics and from where they have drived. What is the base class for that

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

using System.Reflection;

namespace ReflectionDemo
{
    static class ReflectionTest
    {
        public static int Height;
        public static int Width;
        public static int Weight;
        public static string Name;

        public static void Write()
        {
            Type type = typeof(ReflectionTest);         //Get type pointer
            FieldInfo[] fields = type.GetFields();      //obtain all fields
            MethodInfo[] methods = type.GetMethods();
            Console.WriteLine(type);
            foreach (var item in methods)
            {
                string name = item.Name;
                Console.WriteLine(name);
            }

            foreach (var field in fields)
            {
                string name = field.Name; //(null); //Get value
                object temp = field.GetValue(name);
                if (temp is int) //see if it is an integer
                {
                    int value = (int)temp;
                    Console.Write(name);
                    Console.Write("(int) = ");
                    Console.WriteLine(value);
                }
                else if (temp is string)
                {
                    string value = temp as string;
                    Console.Write(name);
                    Console.Write("(string) = ");
                    Console.WriteLine(value);
                }
            }
        }        
    }
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            ReflectionTest.Height = 100;
            ReflectionTest.Width = 50;
            ReflectionTest.Weight = 300;
            ReflectionTest.Name = "Perl";

            ReflectionTest.Write();

            Console.ReadLine();            
        }
    }
}

But how to create an object of a static class to access those methods static class cannot have non static methods

Answer 1

Only static members can be declared in a static class - but as far as the CLR is concerned, it's just another class, which happens to only have static members, doesn't have a constructor, and is both abstract and sealed. The CLR doesn't have the concept of a static class... so the class still inherits the instance members from object.

This is a good example of why it's important to distinguish between language features, framework features and runtime features.
