How do I invoke a static constructor with reflection?

by

There is also System.Runtime.CompilerServices.RuntimeHelpers.RunClassConstructor(RuntimeTypeHandle type), which additionally guarantees that the static constructor is only called once, regardless how many times the method is called:

Type myClass = typeof(MyClass);
System.Runtime.CompilerServices.RuntimeHelpers.RunClassConstructor(myClass.TypeHandle);
