Delegate for any method type - C#

Question

I want to have a class that will execute any external method, like this:

class CrazyClass
{
  //other stuff

  public AnyReturnType Execute(AnyKindOfMethod Method, object[] ParametersForMethod)
  {
    //more stuff
    return Method(ParametersForMethod) //or something like that
  }
}

Is this possible? Is there a delegate that takes any method signature?

Answer 1

You can do this a different way by Func<T> and closures:

public T Execute<T>(Func<T> method)
{
   // stuff
   return method();
}

The caller can then use closures to implement it:

var result = yourClassInstance.Execute(() => SomeMethod(arg1, arg2, arg3));

The advantage here is that you allow the compiler to do the hard work for you, and the method calls and return value are all type safe, provide intellisense, etc.
