Dynamically creating objects

I know this is something that is common, but I just can't find a suitable answer anywhere on the internet. The keywords that I think pertain to my problem are not correct, so I can't figure out what to search for! Even someone linking me to a page about this would be helpful!

Let's say my program takes a text file (a story) as input, and I want to create an instance of the custom class "Person" for every person named in the text file. How do I do this? How can I dynamically create the objects, without knowing what the names are beforehand?

How can I later call those objects and their functions/variables w/o knowing the name of the object(s)?

Create a new text file and fill it as bellow:

; Person first name

FirstName = djfdhfj

; Person last name

LastName = jhjhjhjhj

; Person region

Region = jhjhjhjhj

; Person education

Level = jhjhjhhj

; Person profession

Profession = jhjhjhjhjh

use this code to generate a class from this text file

using Res = System.Resources.Tools;

using Microsoft.CSharp;

///

/// Array that contains unmatchables elements

/// The maximum dimension of the errors array

private static void GenerateWrapper(string[]errors)

{

try

{

Res.StronglyTypedRecourceBuilder(@"C:\myResourcesTextFiles.txt", "ResourcesClass", "Resources", new CSharpCodeProvider(), false, out errors);

}

/* This code is done by bejaoui bechir the exception will be thrown when one among elements in the

* resource file can't be wrapped for a given problem during

* the generation process

catch (StrongTypingException caught)

{

MessageBox.Show("Source: " + caught.Source + "Message: " + caught.Message);

}

}
look at your project you'll find a new generated class from this text
