Get property value from C# dynamic object by string (reflection?)

by

I don’t know if there’s a more elegant way with dynamically created objects, but using plain old reflection should work:

var nameOfProperty = "property1";
var propertyInfo = myObject.GetType().GetProperty(nameOfProperty);
var value = propertyInfo.GetValue(myObject, null);

GetProperty will return null if the type of myObject does not contain a public property with this name.

EDIT: If the object is not a “regular” object but something implementing IDynamicMetaObjectProvider, this approach will not work. Please have a look at this question instead:

  • How do I reflect over the members of dynamic object?
