Definition

Namespace: KGySoft.Reflection
Assembly: KGySoft.CoreLibraries (in KGySoft.CoreLibraries.dll) Version: 10.0.0
C#
public static bool TrySetProperty(
	Type type,
	string propertyName,
	bool ignoreCase,
	Object? value,
	ReflectionWays way = ReflectionWays.Auto
)

Parameters

type  Type
The Type the static property belongs to.
propertyName  String
The name of the property to be set.
ignoreCase  Boolean
to ignore case; to regard case.
value  Object
The value to set.
way  ReflectionWays  (Optional)
The preferred reflection way. TypeDescriptor way is not applicable for static properties. This parameter is optional.
Default value: Auto.

Return Value

Boolean
, if the property could be set; , if a matching property could not be found.

Remarks

  Note

If a matching property could be found and the invocation itself has thrown an exception, then this method also throws an exception instead of returning .

propertyName can refer public and non-public properties.

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

If way is Auto, then this method uses the DynamicDelegate reflection way.
