public static bool TrySetProperty(
	Object instance,
	string propertyName,
	Object? value,
	params Object?[]? indexParameters
)

Public Shared Function TrySetProperty ( 
	instance As Object,
	propertyName As String,
	value As Object,
	ParamArray indexParameters As Object()
) As Boolean

public:
static bool TrySetProperty(
	Object^ instance, 
	String^ propertyName, 
	Object^ value, 
	... array<Object^>^ indexParameters
)

static member TrySetProperty : 
        instance : Object * 
        propertyName : string * 
        value : Object * 
        indexParameters : Object[] -> bool 

Parameters

instance  Object

An instance whose property is about to be set.

propertyName  String

The name of the property to be set.

value  Object

The value to set.

indexParameters  Object

Index parameters if propertyName refers to an indexed property. This parameter is ignored for non-indexed properties.

Return Value

propertyName can refer public and non-public properties. To avoid ambiguity (in case of indexers), this method gets all of the properties of the same name and chooses the first one for which the provided indexParameters match.

If you already have a PropertyInfo instance use the SetProperty(Object, PropertyInfo, Object, ReflectionWays, Object) method for better performance.

For setting the property this method uses the TypeDescriptor way for ICustomTypeDescriptor implementations and the DynamicDelegate way otherwise.
