Isolate.Invoke.Method throws a NullReferenceException

Hi,

I'm using Isolate.Invoke.Method to call a protected virtual method, which has no overloads, and I'm getting a NullReferenceException.

Here is the StackTrace:

   at ay.a(Object A_0)
   at System.Linq.Enumerable.WhereSelectArrayIterator`2.MoveNext()
   at System.Linq.Buffer`1..ctor(IEnumerable`1 source)
   at System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray[TSource](IEnumerable`1 source)
   at ay.a(String A_0, IEnumerable`1 A_1, Type A_2, Boolean A_3)
   at ay.a(Object A_0, String A_1, Object[] A_2)
   at Technical.Web.CascadeResXResourceProviderTest.CreateApplicationResourceManager_AppKeyNull()

One of parameters is a null value and this is the main problem.

As far as I can see the Isolate.Invoke.Method method is inferring parameter types from parameter objects (parameter.GetType()). Using this approach null parameter values are not supported and throw the NullReferenceException.

I can, naturally, get the protected method MethodInfo and do the method invoke, so, this is not a severe problem.

To solve the problem I propose either:

• 1. check for null object parameters and throw a specific exception. Also change the documentation according to this behavior.
  2. extend the Isolate.Invoke.Method so that, when no overload exists, bypass the type inference and simply use the existing MethodInfo. If method signature don't match the parameters array the usual exception will be throw.
  3. create an Isolate.Invoke.Method overload with a signature that includes the Type[] that should be used to get the correct MethodInfo.

Suggestion 3 is only to avoid doing similar task in different ways:
using Isolate.Invoke.Method for invoking without null arguments
using MethodInfo.Invoke the same method but with null arguments

Cheers
