Reflection and Generics get value of property
- by GigaPr
Hi
i am trying to implement a generic method which allows to output csv file
public static void WriteToCsv<T>(List<T> list) where T : new()
{
const string attachment = "attachment; filename=PersonList.csv";
HttpContext.Current.Response.Clear();
HttpContext.Current.Response.ClearHeaders();
HttpContext.Current.Response.ClearContent();
HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment);
HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "text/csv";
HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "public");
bool isFirstRow = true;
foreach (T item in list)
{
//Get public properties
PropertyInfo[] propertyInfo = item.GetType().GetProperties();
while (isFirstRow)
{
WriteColumnName(propertyInfo);
isFirstRow = false;
}
Type type = typeof (T);
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
foreach (PropertyInfo info in propertyInfo)
{
//string value ???? I am trying to get the value of the property info for the item object
}
HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(stringBuilder.ToString());
HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(Environment.NewLine);
}
HttpContext.Current.Response.End();
}
but I am not able to get the value of the object's property
Any suggestion?
Thanks
