For Each Property In a Class

[Taner Eser]

Hi all.

Consider this;

I have a class with bunch of properties and i would like to do exactly
same action for each property in my class.

Example;

foreach(property myProperty in MyClassName.Properties)
{
//Do the job!
}

Any suggestions?

I think that the Type.GetProperties function provides exactly what you
need. (Why you need it is another matter, altogether).

Start a search about reflection, that is what you'll need.

Generics + Reflection + Abstract Class = FUN :D

Be aware that when using Reflection you are adding some delay to the process.

And in 99% of cases the "overhead" is negligible. Don't be scared of reflection.

I woldn't say 99%... not even 0,000001%.

Overhead is never negligible.

Other than that, reflection is not a monster anyway.. Use it wisely and everything should be just fine.

BTW: you might also want to take a look into static reflection...
