Resolved Find Original Variable type using Reflection

Hello, does anyone know how to find original variable types with reflection?
I want to check if it's an Audioclip. In the code below, property.GetType() will return System.Reflection.RuntimeFieldInfo.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. foreach(var property in this.GetType().GetFields(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance))
3. {
4.       Debug.Log("Name: " + property.Name +" Type: "+property.GetType());
5. }
6.  

 

We know that reflection works, so rather than blast all your code into a single statement that you cannot reason about, perhaps decant it into lines so you can see what gets returned at each part based on which objects.

Also, it may be helpful to work through some reflection tutorials, but that is a C# thing, not really a Unity thing.

If you have more than one or two dots (.) in a single statement, you're just being mean to yourself.

Break it up, practice social distancing in your code, one thing per line please.

Hi, yes, this is the class/script itself. I was able to find it via property.FieldType. Thanks both of you.
For anyone with a similar problem:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. foreach(var property in this.GetType().GetFields(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance))
3. {
4.    if(property.FieldType ==typeof(UnityEngine.AudioClip)){
5.        Debug.Log(true);
6.    }
7. }
8.  

This will sort through all variables declared in the class of the given type.
P.S. could replace this.GetType().GetFields(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance) with Class className to represent it. I didn't edit it above.

 

I would highly recommend to not confuse yourself by calling a "FIeldInfo" variable "property" since there are also properties and the PropertyInfo class.
