C# accessing a static property of type T in a generic class

Question

I am trying to accomplish the following scenario that the generic TestClassWrapper will be able to access static properties of classes it is made of (they will all derive fr

Answer 1

Generics do not support anything related to static members, so that won't work. My advice would be: don't make it static. Assuming the field genuinely relates to the specific T, you could also use reflection:

return (int) typeof(T).GetField("x").GetValue(null);

but I don't recommend it.
