How to use reflection to call method by name

by

Something along the lines of:

MethodInfo method = service.GetType().GetMethod(serviceAction);
object result = method.Invoke(service, new object[] { request });
return (R) result;

You may well want to add checks at each level though, to make sure the method in question is actually valid, that it has the right parameter types, and that it’s got the right return type. This should be enough to get you started though.
