Update a property on an object knowing only its name

Question

I have some public variables that are defined as follows:

public class FieldsToMonitor
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set;          


        

Answer 1

You're going to have to use reflection to accomplish that. Here's a short example:

class Foo
{
    public int Num { get; set; }
}

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Foo foo = new Foo() { Num = 7 };

    Console.WriteLine(typeof(Foo).GetProperty("Num").GetValue(foo, null));
}
