Question

Using C#, is it possible to access the content of a variable whose name is stored in another string variable?

eg.

string str ="ABCDEFG";
string variable = "str";

How could I access the value of str using variable?

Answer 1

you probably can, but that’s too complicated. Have you thought of using the Dictionary class?

Dictionary<string,string> myDictionary = new Dictionary<string,string>();

myDictionary["str"] = "ABCDEF";

var valueinstr = myDictionary["str"];
