Question

I have a property stored in a string… say Object Foo has a property Bar, so to get the value of the Bar property I would call..

Console.Write(foo.Bar);

Now say that I have "Bar" stored in a string variable…

string property = "Bar"

Foo foo = new Foo();

how would I get the value of foo.Bar using property?

How I’m use to doing it in PHP

$property = "Bar";

$foo = new Foo();

echo $foo->{$property};

Answer 1

Foo foo = new Foo();
var barValue = foo.GetType().GetProperty("Bar").GetValue(foo, null)
