从PropertyInfo检索未知类型的列表

Question

I have a class with a list defined.

class Program
{          
      public List<string> list { get; set; }
};

I need to retrieve this list using PropertyInfo , but the issue is that the List can be of any type (here string). How do I extract the values of the list using propertyinfo as getValue() doesn't return me a list.

You can cast it to IList then use a loop:

var myList = (IList)typeof(Program)
                    .GetProperty("list")
                    .GetValue(yourInstance);

If you don't know the actual type of your list, that's all you can do.If you know the type at compile-time , then you can cast it to IList<T>
