Convert class to dynamic and add properties

Question

I have a class MyClass. I would like to convert this to a dynamic object so I can add a property.

This is what I had hoped for:

dynamic          


        

Answer 1

The following has worked for me in the past:
It allows you to convert any object to an Expando object.

public static dynamic ToDynamic(this T obj)
{
    IDictionary expando = new ExpandoObject();

    foreach (var propertyInfo in typeof(T).GetProperties())
    {
        var currentValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(obj);
        expando.Add(propertyInfo.Name, currentValue);
    }
    return expando as ExpandoObject;
}
