This has me stumped, how would I go about invoking a method like this:
[bbcode]
Method testMethod : Void( a : int, b : float[] )
[/bbcode]
BoxInt is fine for the first parameter but how would I handle the array? I can't see how to do this from the commands in reflection.

Thank you for any assistance, this is making my brain hurt!

Here's a runnable example.
As you're using a class, you will need to replace FunctionInfo with MethodInfo and GetFunction with GetMethod, etc.

Strict

#REFLECTION_FILTER="*"

Import reflection

Function Main:Int()
	
	Local argumentTypes:ClassInfo[] =[IntClass(), ArrayClass("Float")]
	Local functionInfo:FunctionInfo = GetFunction("TestFunc", argumentTypes)
	
	Local myInt:Int = 42
	Local myArray:Float[] =[1.2, 3.4]
	
	functionInfo.Invoke([IntObject(myInt), ArrayBoxer<Float>.Box(myArray)])
	
	Return 0
End

Function TestFunc:Void(a:int, b:float[])
	Print "a:" + a + " b[1]:" + b[1]
End

Thank you, ArrayBoxer was what I was looking for :)
