Set object property using reflection

Question

Is there a way in C# where I can use reflection to set an object property?

Ex:

MyObject obj = new MyObject();
obj.Name = \"Value\";

Answer 1

Use somethings like this :

public static class PropertyExtension{       

   public static void SetPropertyValue(this object p_object, string p_propertyName, object value)
   {
    PropertyInfo property = p_object.GetType().GetProperty(p_propertyName);
    property.SetValue(p_object, Convert.ChangeType(value, property.PropertyType), null);
   }
}

or

public static class PropertyExtension{       

   public static void SetPropertyValue(this object p_object, string p_propertyName, object value)
   {
    PropertyInfo property = p_object.GetType().GetProperty(p_propertyName);
    Type t = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(property.PropertyType) ?? property.PropertyType;
    object safeValue = (value == null) ? null : Convert.ChangeType(value, t);

    property.SetValue(p_object, safeValue, null);
   }
}
