I was looking for ways to do lazy initialization and found Lazy<T> which is included in .NET 4. I was thinking of rolling my own implementation of Lazy<T> for .NET 3.5 (with a simpler multi-thread policy), and I bumped into the following problem: Lazy has basically two types of constructors: class Lazy<T> { public Lazy(){...} // ...
I've been given a "for fun" challenge to write a "hello world" application. The only condition is that I use reflection, there is no specified way this condition must be met, but clever or elegant or "cool" uses are fun. Aside from injecting an external library or doing some sort of IHelloWorldMessageProvider composition container mojo...

UPDATE: Sorry, I was wrong, StringBar is returned. Let's see if I can work out how to delete this question. Imagine the following class: public class Foo { public int Bar { get; set; } public string StringBar { get { return Bar.ToString(); } } public void DoSomething() { } } If I write: typeof(Fo...
In a project that makes heavy use of reflection to select classes based on environment, is there a way to determine what libraries to include in the build? At the moment, taking a library out of the project is a gamble, but sticking with the current plan of "include everything, it's the only way to be sure" makes the whole thing bloated...
I'm trying to use reflection to have a program look at itself and determine whether a certain control triggers UAC.

Like this: public object Foo { get { PropertyInfo propertyInfoForFoo = xxx; ... } } I want to avoid having to hard code the name of the property as a string, as that's tricky to maintain.
