As promised, I've added new content to DotNetDevs.com.

The first article, Reflection Demystified, covers the basics of reflection. I wrote this article essentially as a supplement to the Attribute based URL Dispatching article, to help describe the use of reflection in the dispatching system.

The second article, Using Reflection for the Visitor Pattern, introduces the Gang of Four pattern called "Visitor". It describes a particular class of problem, the "old school" solutions to the problem, and then how to use the Visitor to solve the problem in a more elegant and object oriented fashion. It then goes on to show how reflection can make creating and using visitors a much simpler task.

I want to thank Bernard Vander Beken and Grant Killian for helping me with technical review on these articles.

Enjoy!
