Отличный ответ на хеддинги. Я хотел бы улучшить его, позволяя ссылаться на агрегированные массивы или коллекции объектов, так что propertyName может быть property1.property2 [X] .property3:
public static object GetPropertyValue(object srcobj, string propertyName)
{
if (srcobj == null)
return null;
object obj = srcobj;
// Split property name to parts (propertyName could be hierarchical, like obj.subobj.subobj.property
string[] propertyNameParts = propertyName.Split('.');
foreach (string propertyNamePart in propertyNameParts)
{
if (obj == null) return null;
// propertyNamePart could contain reference to specific
// element (by index) inside a collection
if (!propertyNamePart.Contains("["))
{
PropertyInfo pi = obj.GetType().GetProperty(propertyNamePart);
if (pi == null) return null;
obj = pi.GetValue(obj, null);
}
else
{ // propertyNamePart is areference to specific element
// (by index) inside a collection
// like AggregatedCollection[123]
// get collection name and element index
int indexStart = propertyNamePart.IndexOf("[")+1;
string collectionPropertyName = propertyNamePart.Substring(0, indexStart-1);
int collectionElementIndex = Int32.Parse(propertyNamePart.Substring(indexStart, propertyNamePart.Length-indexStart-1));
// get collection object
PropertyInfo pi = obj.GetType().GetProperty(collectionPropertyName);
if (pi == null) return null;
object unknownCollection = pi.GetValue(obj, null);
// try to process the collection as array
if (unknownCollection.GetType().IsArray)
{
object[] collectionAsArray = unknownCollection as Array[];
obj = collectionAsArray[collectionElementIndex];
}
else
{
// try to process the collection as IList
System.Collections.IList collectionAsList = unknownCollection as System.Collections.IList;
if (collectionAsList != null)
{
obj = collectionAsList[collectionElementIndex];
}
else
{
// ??? Unsupported collection type
}
}
}
}
return obj;
}
