Using reflection read properties of an object containing array of another object

问题

How can I read the properties of an object that contains an element of array type using reflection in c#. If I have a method called GetMyProperties and I determine that the object is a custom type then how can I read the properties of an array and the values within. IsCustomType is method to determine if the type is custom type or not.

public void GetMyProperties(object obj) 
{ 
    foreach (PropertyInfo pinfo in obj.GetType().GetProperties()) 
    { 
        if (!Helper.IsCustomType(pinfo.PropertyType)) 
        { 
            string s = pinfo.GetValue(obj, null).ToString(); 
            propArray.Add(s); 
        } 
        else 
        { 
            object o = pinfo.GetValue(obj, null); 
            GetMyProperties(o); 
        } 
    } 
}

The scenario is, I have an object of ArrayClass and ArrayClass has two properties:

-string Id
-DeptArray[] depts

DeptArray is another class with 2 properties:

-string code 
-string value

So, this methods gets an object of ArrayClass. I want to read all the properties to top-to-bottom and store name/value pair in a dictionary/list item. I am able to do it for value, custom, enum type. I got stuck with array of objects. Not sure how to do it.

Try this code:

public static void GetMyProperties(object obj)
{
  foreach (PropertyInfo pinfo in obj.GetType().GetProperties())
  {
    var getMethod = pinfo.GetGetMethod();
    if (getMethod.ReturnType.IsArray)
    {
      var arrayObject = getMethod.Invoke(obj, null);
      foreach (object element in (Array) arrayObject)
      {
        foreach (PropertyInfo arrayObjPinfo in element.GetType().GetProperties())
        {
          Console.WriteLine(arrayObjPinfo.Name + ":" + arrayObjPinfo.GetGetMethod().Invoke(element, null).ToString());
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

I've tested this code and it resolves arrays through reflection correctly.

You'll need to retrieve the property value object and then call GetType() on it. Then you can do something like this:

var type = pinfo.GetGetMethod().Invoke(obj, new object[0]).GetType();
if (type.IsArray)
{
    Array a = (Array)obj;
    foreach (object arrayVal in a)
    {
        // reflect on arrayVal now
        var elementType = arrayVal.GetType();
    }
}

FYI -- I pulled this code from a recursive object formatting method (I would use JSON serialization for it now).
