Hello

Thanks for the reply.

Futher investigation shows that the problem only shows itself if the
internal member is declared in a base class.

Meaning that using:

And having a base class that declares a property as internal causes the call
below (not actual code) to return null instead of the property.

myType.GetProperty(myObject, "MyProperty", BindingFlags.NonPublic |
BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance)

Changing the property to public or making the call directly on the base
class type makes it return the property.

(I have not tested changing the type to protected or private)

Is this a bug?

Regards, TEK
