using reflection to invoke a method

Question

Hello everyone There are two ways to use reflection to invoke a method 1. Using InvokeMember; 2. Using GetType.GetMethod to retrieve a MethodInfo object then use the MethodInfo object to invoke the method. My point is from the result point of view they are the same but method 2 if more efficient if we want to invoke the method multiple of times by the same MethodInfo object -- since each time we call InvokeMember it needs to find the method nothing saved as MethodInfo object in method 2 and each time InvokeMember did the binding to find the same method. My question is whether my point of understanding is correct and whether there any more differences/pros/cons compared with the 2 methods. thanks in advance George

My question is not asking which one is faster but why faster? Any comments? :-) regards George

I suggest an operational solution to precise whether method1 or method2 is the more important create a class and within it impelment the two method 1 and 2 then foreach method do impelement a counter this counts the execution duration to make the measure
