Get private Properties/Method of base-class with reflection

Question

With Type.GetProperties() you can retrieve all properties of your current class and the public properties of the base-class. Is it somehow possible

Answer 1

Iterate through the base types (type = type.BaseType), until type.BaseType is null.

MethodInfo mI = null;
Type baseType = someObject.GetType();
while (mI == null)
{
    mI = baseType.GetMethod("SomePrivateMethod", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
    baseType = baseType.BaseType;
    if (baseType == null) break;
}
mI.Invoke(someObject, new object[] {});

Answer 2

To get all properties (public + private/protected/internal, static + instance) of a given Type someType (maybe using GetType() to get someType):

PropertyInfo[] props = someType.BaseType.GetProperties(
        BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Public
        | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static)
