Work towards a Microsoft Certificaton Exam with Your Peers.

The Boston.NET User Group coordinates a Certification Study Group which is a volunteer peer study group devoted to earning Microsoft certification.

There is no fee to participate. The only requirement is that members come prepared to actively participate in a discussion of reading the week's material. We rotate presentations of the topic subject matter and review likely exam questions.

If you're serious about learning new technologies, advancing your career, and networking with other motivated peers we encourage you to attend our next meeting.

Boston .NET User Group Monthly Meeting

MSFT Office, Waltham, MA

Reflection, with Custom Attributes
Dan Mezick

6:00-8:00 p.m.
Reflection is an important topic for your all-round deep understanding of .NET platform mechanics. For example, without reflection, there is no possibility of dynamic Intellisense. The reflection classes allow you to dynamically discover, identify and call methods on a class in a DLL. When you need to get going with Reflection and Attributes, what you really need is a very good explanation, and solid piece of code that demonstrates just how to use the API. This session provides both.

Attend this session to see .NET Reflection and custom .NET Attributes in action-- and to get clear on using Reflection and authoring Custom Attributes. You exit the session with the complete application, in commented C#.NET source code
