how to get return value from a method of custom type using reflection?

I have a method in class which returns a custom type. I am using reflection to invoke this method but not able to get the response.

NOTE: I cannot cast the return value to the custom type because I cannot refer the dll in my project.

Response = method.Invoke(instance, new[] { parameter});

Response is null now. this method call should return a custom type.

You'll get the response as a System.Object:

object response = method.Invoke(instance, new[] { parameter });

There are multiple reasons you could still get null for response, including that the method itself returned null or it was a void method.
