How to check whether an object has certain method/property?

by

You could write something like that : 

public static bool HasMethod(this object objectToCheck, string methodName)
{
    var type = objectToCheck.GetType();
    return type.GetMethod(methodName) != null;
}

Edit : you can even do an extension method and use it like this

myObject.HasMethod("SomeMethod");
