there. I am wondering how I can get the key and value types of a non-generic IDictionary at runtime.

For generic IDictionary, we can use reflection to get the generic arguments, which has been answered here.

But for non-generic IDictionary, for instance, HybridDictionary, how can I get the key and value types? Thanks.

Edit: I may not describe my problem properly. For non-generic IDictionary, if I have HyBridDictionary, which is declared as

HyBridDictionary dict = new HyBridDictionary();

dict.Add("foo" , 1);
dict.Add("bar", 2);

How can I find out the type of the key is string and type of the value is int? Did I make the question clear? Thanks.
