Answer 1

It's hard to tell what exactly are you trying to do. But if you want to call a generic method with a type parameter that is the same as some object, you can't do that directly. But you can write another method that takes your object as a parameter, let the dynamic infer the type and then call the method you want:

void HelperMethod(T obj)
{
    CallFunction();
}

…

dynamic x = …;
HelperMethod(x);
