inheritance

Hello there,

I'm experimenting with C# 4.0's dynamic object model.

I've created an abstract class named "Block" that inherits from DynamicObject. It overrides TryGetMember and TrySetMember.

Furthermore I've created a usable class named "Brush" that inherits from "Block". I want it to be usable dynamically.

But when I create a dynamic object from it and try to access a runtime bound member, it pelts me with an exception telling me that the member doesn't exist. The overridden TryGetMember or TrySetMember methods of the abstract parent class aren't getting called.

Is this behaviour to be expected?

Thank you!

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

as seen on West-Wind - Search for 'West-Wind'
The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
