The C# compiler doesn’t allow this. What’s the reason for this? And what workaround I can use?
Basically I need to swap some values around, but don’t wanna have the same swapping code all over.
Properties, in general are just methods, so it would be strange if you could just “get reference to them”, as no one can be sure, that you are referring to just a variable. I don’t think there’s a quick and nice workaround other that not using auto-properties in this case.
I’m omitting the idea of using reflection to get to those variables under the hood, as it wouldn’t make much sense in this case.
