Accessing private properties and methods without Reflection
This blog post title might be very surprising to the viewers. I am sure people would be thinking how in the word can you access private properties or methods without using reflection. Well in your code you don't have much choice except to use reflection. However if you are debugging, than immediate window lets you access private level properties and method. I thought it was pretty slick and also meant easier and more productive debugging. In the code below, I have an Employee class which has a private method and a private property. I created an instance of my class, than stopped the debugger in the next line, opened up the immediate window and ran the commands below. Sure enough immediate window allowed me to call the private attributes of a class although intellisence didn't seem to help any in terms of calling private stuff.
