Question

I’m not sure if it is possible in a easy way (with little code that is).

I have a model:

public static Class TestClass
{
    public static bool Test1 { get; set; }
    public static bool Test2 { get; set; }
    public static bool Test3 { get; set; }
    public static bool Test4 { get; set; }
    public static bool Test5 { get; set; }
    public static bool Test6 { get; set; }
}

Is it possible for a simple Foreach or other command to create 6 checkboxes, each named as the property name and checked bound to the actual property?

So basicly what I want to create this for each property:

var check = new CheckBox { Name = Test1 };
check.CheckedChanged += (s,ea) => { TestClass.Test1 = check.IsChecked; }; 

but for each property and perhaps even with less code?

It’s possible but I dont know if you can do it with static properties.

public class TestClass
{
    public bool Test1 { get; set; }
    public bool Test2 { get; set; }
    public bool Test3 { get; set; }
}

void Test(Control parent, TestClass tc)
{
    int y = 10;

    foreach (var prop in tc.GetType().GetProperties())
    {
        var cb = new CheckBox(); 
        cb.Name = prop.Name;   
        cb.Text = prop.Name;
        cb.DataBindings.Add(new Binding("Checked", tc, prop.Name));
        cb.Location = new Point(10, y);
        parent.Controls.Add(cb);
        y += 25;
    }
}

example:

{
    var form = new Form();
    var tc = new TestClass();
    tc.Test2 = true;
    Test(form, tc);
    form.Show();
}
