Is there a built-in .NET method for getting all of the properties and values for an object?

Question

Let's say I have:

public class Item
{
    public string SKU {get; set; }
    public string Description {get; set; }
}

....

Is there a built-in method in .NET that will let me get the properties and values for variable i of type Item that might look like this:

{SKU: "123-4556", Description: "Millennial Radio Classic"}

I know that .ToString() can be overloaded to provide this functionaility, but I couldn't remember if this was already provided in .NET.

Answer 1

您作为示例描述的格式看起来很像JSON ，因此您可以使用JavaScriptSerializer ：

string value = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(myItem);

Answer 2

If it is not JSON you are using and just normal C# class, have alook at System.Reflection namespace

something similar would work

Item item = new Item();
foreach (PropertyInfo info in item.GetType().GetProperties())
{
   if (info.CanRead)
   {

      // To retrieve value 
      object o = info.GetValue(myObject, null);

      // To Set Value
      info.SetValue("SKU", "NewValue", null);
   }
}

Provided with, you should have proper get and set in place for the properties you want to work over.

XMLSerializer也可以运行： http ： //msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.serialization.xmlserializer.aspx

Answer 4

您可以使用JSON库，例如JSON.NET或内置的JavaScriptSerializer 。
