title: Obtaining controller Type from string action, string controller, object routeValues information
body: <p>In an ASP.NET MVC 2 application, how would I obtain the Type of the controller that would be used, given the information about the route: <code>string action, string controller, object routeValues</code>?</p>
  
  <p>(The routeValues object might look like this new {area="admin"} and route to a controller for a different site area.)</p>
