You will have to use "using System.Reflection;" in your file as reference. PropertyInfo is a predefined class under that.

@Ruchi, As you mentioned that " var _obj = new yourclass(); string value = "5.5" ; PropertyInfo propertyInfo = yourobject.GetType().GetProperty( "yourproperty" ); propertyInfo.SetValue(yourobject, value, null ); " can we access property value like var _obj = new yourclass(); string value = "5.5"; PropertyInfo propertyInfo = yourobject.GetType().GetProperty("FirstName"); propertyInfo.SetValue(yourobject, value, null); " _obj.FirstName ? I hope you understand that.

@Ruchi Thanks for sharing but propertyinfo is predefined class or user defined class?

Ruchi Sharavat · Answer

For all properties: var _obj = new yourclass(); foreach (PropertyInfo propertyInfo in _obj.GetType().GetProperties()) { string propname = propertyInfo.Name; propertyInfo.SetValue(_obj, yourvalue); } For specific: string value = "5.5" ; PropertyInfo propertyInfo = yourobject.GetType().GetProperty( "yourproperty" ); propertyInfo.SetValue(yourobject, value, null );
