          <para>To invoke a generic method, there must be no generic type definitions or open constructed types in the type arguments of the method itself, or in any enclosing types. Making this recursive determination can be difficult. For convenience, and to reduce the chance of error, the <see cref="P:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ContainsGenericParameters" /> property provides a standard way to distinguish between closed constructed methods, which can be invoked, and open constructed methods, which cannot. If the <see cref="P:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ContainsGenericParameters" /> property returns true, the method cannot be invoked.</para>
          <para>The <see cref="P:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.ContainsGenericParameters" /> property searches recursively for type parameters. For example, it returns true for any method in an open type A&lt;T&gt; (A(Of T) in Visual Basic), even though the method itself is not generic. Contrast this with the behavior of the <see cref="P:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.IsGenericMethod" /> property, which returns false for such a method.</para>

          <attribution license="cc4" from="Microsoft" modified="false" />
          <para>A generic method definition is a template from which methods can be constructed. For example, from the generic method definition T M&lt;T&gt;(T t) (expressed in C# syntax; Function M(Of T)(ByVal tVal As T) As T in Visual Basic) you can construct and invoke the method int M&lt;int&gt;(int t) (Function M(Of Integer)(ByVal tVal As Integer) As Integer in Visual Basic). Given a <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> object representing this constructed method, the <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition" /> method returns the generic method definition.</para>
          <para>If two constructed methods are created from the same generic method definition, the <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition" /> method returns the same <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> object for both methods.</para>
          <para>If you call <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetGenericMethodDefinition" /> on a <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> that already represents a generic method definition, it returns the current <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" />.</para>
          <para>If a generic method definition includes generic parameters of the declaring type, there will be a generic method definition specific to each constructed type. For example, consider the following C#, Visual Basic, and C++ code:</para>
          <code>class B&lt;U,V&gt; {}
class C&lt;T&gt; { public B&lt;T,S&gt; M&lt;S&gt;() {...}}

Class B(Of U, V)
End Class
Class C(Of T)
    Public Function M(Of S)() As B(Of T, S)
        ...
    End Function
End Class 

generic &lt;typename U, typename V&gt; ref class B {};
generic &lt;typename T&gt; ref class C
{
public:
    generic &lt;typename S&gt; B&lt;T,S&gt;^ M() {...};
};</code>
          <para>In the constructed type C&lt;int&gt; (C(Of Integer) in Visual Basic), the generic method M returns B&lt;int, S&gt;. In the open type C&lt;T&gt;, M returns B&lt;T, S&gt;. In both cases, the <see cref="P:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.IsGenericMethodDefinition" /> property returns true for the <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> that represents M, so <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod(System.Type[])" /> can be called on both <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> objects. In the case of the constructed type, the result of calling <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod(System.Type[])" /> is a <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> that can be invoked. In the case of the open type, the <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> returned by <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod(System.Type[])" /> cannot be invoked.  </para>

          <para>The <see cref="M:System.Reflection.MethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod(System.Type[])" /> method allows you to write code that assigns specific types to the type parameters of a generic method definition, thus creating a <see cref="T:System.Reflection.MethodInfo" /> object that represents a particular constructed method.
