How to pass variable of type “Type” to generic parameter

Question

I\'m trying to do this:

Type type = Type.GetType(string.Format(\"Gestor.Data.Entities.{0}, Gestor.Data\", e.Item.Value));
MetaDataUtil.GetColumnasGrid

        

Answer 1

You need to use reflection for this.

var method =
    typeof(MetaDataUtil)
    .GetMethod("GetColumnasGrid")
    .MakeGenericMethod(new [] { type })
    .Invoke(null, null);
