✅ Getting generic type parameters using reflection

Using the reflection system, how can I get at the generic type parameters?
I have the following:

public class MyClass<T1, T2> {}

Type myClassType = typeof(MyClass<string, int>);
Type myClassGenericType = myClassType.GetGenericTypeDefinition();

public class MyClass<T1, T2> {}

Type myClassType = typeof(MyClass<string, int>);
Type myClassGenericType = myClassType.GetGenericTypeDefinition();

And from

myClassGenericType

myClassGenericType

, I want to get details of what the generic type parameters are (

T1

T1

and

T2

T2

).

In the debugger, this information is in

GenericTypeParameters

GenericTypeParameters

RuntimeType

RuntimeType

, but this isn't part of

Type

Type

, and

RuntimeType

RuntimeType

is private, so I can't get at its internals.
