Question by DaiMangouDev · Sep 04, 2015 at 12:55 AM · c#erroreditoreditorwindowreflection

How to open an Editor Window by using the MethodInfo.Invoke function ?

I am trying to open my editor window via MethodInfo.Invoke but it will not work .

             if (GUI.Button(new Rect(0, 0, 200, 20), "Click Me"))
             {
                 Type thisType = typeof(EditorWindow);
                 MethodInfo theMethod = thisType.GetMethod("GetWindow", new Type[]{typeof(MyWindow)});
                 theMethod.Invoke("GetWindow", new object[]{typeof(MyWindow)});
             }



This works so why cant i get my editor window to show up

 if (GUI.Button(new Rect(0, 0, 200, 20), "Click Me"))
             {
                 Type thisType = typeof(TestThis);
                 MethodInfo theMethod = thisType.GetMethod("Up", new Type[]{typeof(String)});
                 theMethod.Invoke("Up", new object[]{" word "});
             }
 
 public class TestThis
 {
 
 
     public static void Up()
     {
         Debug.Log("Works");
     }
 
     public static void Up( String T)
     {
         Debug.Log(T);
     }
 }

 method.Invoke(someObject, new object[] { methodParams });

I already know the format. I want to use this method to open the editor window. I may just go with another method later but I want to get this method working.

I modified your script to test it and it appears if you change typeof(MyWindow) in the GetMethod call to typeof(Type) it seems to work.

So the resulting line change would look like:

 MethodInfo theMethod = thisType.GetMethod("GetWindow", new Type[]{typeof(Type)});

See if that works for you.
