Alternative to Activator.CreateInstance

I found that the quickest way to instantiate an object with a default constructor through Reflection is by using the DynamicMethod class. Below is a helper class I wrote to easily instantiate an object using Reflection.

  public class DynamicInitializer
    {
        public static V NewInstance<V>() where V : class
        {
            return ObjectGenerator(typeof(V)) as V;
        }

        private static object ObjectGenerator(Type type)
        {
            var target = type.GetConstructor(Type.EmptyTypes);
            var dynamic = new DynamicMethod(string.Empty,
                          type,
                          new Type[0],
                          target.DeclaringType);
            var il = dynamic.GetILGenerator();
            il.DeclareLocal(target.DeclaringType);
            il.Emit(OpCodes.Newobj, target);
            il.Emit(OpCodes.Stloc_0);
            il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldloc_0);
            il.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);

            var method = (Func<object>)dynamic.CreateDelegate(typeof(Func<object>));
            return method();
        }

        public static object NewInstance(Type type)
        {
            return ObjectGenerator(type);
        }
    }

You can call NewInstance using two methods: NewInstance<V>(), NewInstance(Type type).
