Is there any way I can find out a MethodInfo/PropertyInfo/... is
static (which means the same as in C# language here)?

Thanks!

Well, one option is the calling convention; static is "Standard",
instance is generally "HasThis" (for C# at least). With PropertyInfo you
might have to get one of the accessors (GetGetMethod / GetSetMethod) to
do this.

There may be other ways, of course...

Thanks, I'll have a try.

I am wondering why wouldn't the microsoft guys add an IsStatic
property for MemberInfo class

But... they did. All sorts of attributes. In the MethodBase.Attributes
property no less.

Try (mi.Attributes & MethodAttributes.Static).
