Call static method with reflection

by

As the documentation for MethodInfo.Invoke states, the first argument is ignored for static methods so you can just pass null.

foreach (var tempClass in macroClasses)
{
   // using reflection I will be able to run the method as:
   tempClass.GetMethod("Run").Invoke(null, null);
}

As the comment points out, you may want to ensure the method is static when calling GetMethod:

tempClass.GetMethod("Run", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static).Invoke(null, null);
