How to determine if an object has a certain method

D

Don

Is it possible to determine if an object has a certain method or property
available? For example, say I have a function with one parameter of type
Object. At the end of the function I want to properly clean up the object
passed to me, but I want to know, first, if the object that was passed to me
implements a Dispose method or not. Is there a way to tell?
