GetConstructor method and private constructors

[Doug]

I am using reflection to read an assembly and I have a class that has
only a private constructor. However when I use the following method.


Type.GetConstructors(BindFlags.NonPublic);


It does not pick up the private constructor. Instead it reads that
there are no constructors. How do I use this method to determine there

is a private constructor there?

You need GetConstructors (BindingFlags.NonPublic |
BindingFlags.Instance);
