   public static int Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)

      // Get the Type and MemberInfo.
      Type MyType = Type.GetType("System.Empty");
      MemberInfo[] Examplearray = MyType.GetMembers();

      // Get and display the DeclaringType method.
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\nThere are {0} members in ",
          Examplearray.GetLength(0));
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0}.", MyType.FullName);

      foreach (MemberInfo Example in Examplearray)

         outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\n" + Example.Name
             + " declaring type - " +
             Example.DeclaringType);
