Copy the property values to another object with C# [duplicate]

Answer 1

If I am not mistaken with what is required, the way to easily achieve property value copy between two existing instances (even not of the same type) is to use Automapper.

1. create mapping configuration
2. and then call .Map(soure, target)

As long as you keep property in same type and in same naming convention, all should work.

Example:

MapperConfiguration _configuration = new MapperConfiguration(cnf =>
            {
                cnf.CreateMap();
            });
var mapper = new Mapper(_configuration);
maper.DefaultContext.Mapper.Map(source, target)
