This is a scenario created to help understand what Im trying to achieve.
I am trying to create a method that returns the specified property of a generic object
e.g.
public object getValue<TModel>(TModel item, string propertyName) where TModel : class{
PropertyInfo p = typeof(TModel).GetProperty(propertyName);
return p.GetValue(item, null);
}
The code above works fine if you're looking for a property on the TModel item
e.g.
string customerName = getValue<Customer>(customer, "name");
However, if you want to find out what the customer's group's name is, it becomes a problem:
e.g.
string customerGroupName = getValue<Customer>(customer, "Group.name");
Hoping someone can give me some insight on this way out scenario - thanks.
