Possible Duplicate:
obj-c access property dynamically

I’m attempting to access an object’s properties dynamically using strings. I know that we can access classes dynamically etc but is this possible for properties?
For example, instead of directly accessing the property name, can we use a NSString to access it?

@property (retain,nonatomic) int height;

NSString *stringName = @"height"; object.stringName = 30.0f;

where object.height == object.stringName;

    You can do this using KVC.

    [[object valueForKey:@"height"] intValue]

    All properties automatically opt into the KVC system.
