Retrieving Property name from lambda expression

Question

Is there a better way to get the Property name when passed in via a lambda expression? Here is what i currently have.

eg.

GetSortingInfo         


        

Answer 1

now in C# 6 you can simply use nameof like this nameof(User.UserId)

which has many benefits, among them is that this is done at compile time, not runtime.
