Question

i’ve some classes and want to access their properties using index or something like

ClassObject[0] or better will be ClassObject["PropName"]

instead of this

ClassObj.PropName.

Thanks

You can do something like this, a pseudocode:

    public class MyClass
    {

        public object this[string PropertyName]
        {
            get
            {
                Type myType = typeof(MyClass);
                System.Reflection.PropertyInfo pi = myType.GetProperty(PropertyName);
                return pi.GetValue(this, null); //not indexed property!
            }
            set
            {
                Type myType = typeof(MyClass);
                System.Reflection.PropertyInfo pi = myType.GetProperty(PropertyName);
                pi.SetValue(this, value, null); //not indexed property!
            }
        }
    }

and after use it like

MyClass cl = new MyClass();
cl["MyClassProperty"] = "cool";

Note that this is not complete solution, as you need to “play” with BindingFlags during reflection access if you want to have non public properties/fields, static ones and so on.
