在F＃中反映C＃类型

Question

I've loaded a C# dll in a Fsi session. Running C# methods returns some C# types. I've written a helper function to explore the Properties for a given C# type.

The program is failing with an error:

stdin(95,21): error FS0039: The type 'RuntimePropertyInfo' is not defined

Is this possible to do? Or am I beating a dead horse?

let getPropertyNames (s : System.Type)=
    Seq.map (fun (t:System.Reflection.RuntimePropertyInfo) -> t.Name) (typeof<s>.GetProperties())

typeof<TypeName>.GetProperties() //seems to work.

I'm just aiming for a pretty print of C# fields.

Update

I think I've found a way to do this. And it seems to work. I'm not able to answer myself. So I'll accept the answer of anyone who gives a better example than this.

let getPropertyNames (s : System.Type)=
    let properties = s.GetProperties()
    properties 
        |> Array.map (fun x -> x.Name) 
        |> Array.iter (fun x -> printfn "%s" x)

As mentioned in the comments, you can use System.Reflection.PropertyInfo in the type annotation. Your code also has typeof<s> , but s is already a variable of type System.Type , so you can just call GetProperties on s directly:

let getPropertyNames (s : System.Type)=
    Seq.map (fun (t:System.Reflection.PropertyInfo) -> t.Name) (s.GetProperties())

getPropertyNames (typeof<System.String>)

You can also avoid the type annotation altogether by using pipe:

let getPropertyNames (s : System.Type)=
    s.GetProperties() |> Seq.map (fun t -> t.Name)
