Programmatically get the type of a container’s field

[jjd]

I am able getting container’s field names through GetNthSubPropertyName at runtime

I would also like to get their types (String, Number, Boolean…). Does someone has an idea on how proceeding?

Not completely sure what you need. It's a bit quick and dirty but does this help?

Or from TestStand as an expression:

Locals.GetNthSubProperty("StevesLocal",1,0).Type.DisplayString

Thank you Steve, that is absoluteley what I needed.

As I have to do it within a TestStand statement, the equivalent to your example is:

Locals.TypeName = RunState.Sequence.Parameters.GetNthSubProperty("StevesLocal",1,0).Type.DisplayString

Perfectly works!

Thanks to you too, Charlie!
