What is the equivalent of Type.GetGenericArguments() in .NETStandard 1.0 / .NET Core?

Question

The method System.Type.GetGenericArguments() is \'missing\' from .NETStandard 1.0, and I thought that the TypeInfo.GenericTypeArguments was the replace

Answer 1

After further investigation, the Type.GenericTypeArguments seems to only return anything if the type isn't a generic type definition. The TypeInfo.GenericTypeParameters on the other hand, only returns any if the type is a generic type definition.

The following code mimics the behavior of Type.GetGenericArguments():

type.GetTypeInfo().IsGenericTypeDefinition 
    ? type.GetTypeInfo().GenericTypeParameters 
    : type.GetTypeInfo().GenericTypeArguments;
