Dynamics not finding shared members (and it seems instance members too)

[nevdelap]

mono = Assembly.load('Mono.Posix, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken?=0738eb9f132ed756')

Currently this throws Cobra.Lang.UnknownMemberException?

unixFileSystemInfo as dynamic? = mono.getType('Mono.Unix.UnixFileSystemInfo?')
fileInfo as dynamic? = unixFileSystemInfo.getFileSystemEntry('/usr/local/bin/cobra')

Workaround is to call invokeMethod...

unixFileSystemInfo2 as Type = mono.getType('Mono.Unix.UnixFileSystemInfo?')
fileInfo as dynamic? = unixFileSystemInfo2.invokeMember('GetFileSystemEntry?', BindingFlags?(Static, InvokeMethod?).InvokeMethod?, nil, nil, @[/usr/local/bin/cobra?])

The complete example program is in...

(The title should have been shared members to start with.)

Further, doing this works...

unixFileSystemInfo2 as Type = mono.getType('Mono.Unix.UnixFileSystemInfo??')
fileInfo as dynamic? = unixFileSystemInfo2.invokeMember('GetFileSystemEntry??',

Doing this doesn't...

unixFileSystemInfo2 as dynamic? = mono.getType('Mono.Unix.UnixFileSystemInfo??')
fileInfo as dynamic? = unixFileSystemInfo2.invokeMember('GetFileSystemEntry??',

The invokeMember() is not static, but has the same issue saying it can't find the member for InvokeMember?.

Stand-alone, small test case:

class Test

	shared
	
		def two as int
			return 2

		get three as int
			return 3

		def double(i as int) as int
			return i * 2

		def main
			t = Test to dynamic
			assert t.two == 2
			assert t.three == 3
			assert t.double(4) == 8

Ah, interesting. It's much more fundamental and I was off on tangents. Goodo.

Your essential report was correct. This is just my usual "reduction" to create a focused test for our regression test suite.

Now fixed in changeset:2401. Thanks for the report.
