Set value of private field

Question

Why is the following code not working:

class Program
{
    static void Main ( string[ ] args )
    {
        SomeClass         


        

Answer 1

Evidently, adding BindingFlags.Instance seems to have solved it:

> class SomeClass
  {
      object id;

      public object Id
      {
          get
          {
              return id;
          }
      }
  }
> var t = typeof(SomeClass)
      ;
> t
[Submission#1+SomeClass]
> t.GetField("id")
null
> t.GetField("id", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance);
> t.GetField("id", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance)
[System.Object id]
