Question

Considering:

Dictionary<string,Object> dict = new Dictionary<string,Object>();

dict.Add("Name","deadlock");
dict.Add("Birthday",new BD(12,12,1955));

Knowing that BD is:

public class BD {

public int Day {get; set; }
public int Month {get; set; }
public int Year {get; set;}

public BD(int x,int y,int z) { Day=x; Month=y; Year=z; }
}

My problem is that I can’t reference Day,Month,Year from the dictionary like that:

int Day1 = dict["Birthday"].Day;

The above code won’t work. Any suggestions are welcome.

Answer 1

int Day1 = ((BD)dict["Birthday"]).Day;

You need to cast it into a BD object.
