Dynamic object property populator (without reflection)

问题

I want to populate an object's properties without using reflection in a manner similar to the DynamicBuilder on CodeProject. The CodeProject example is tailored for populating entities using a DataReader or DataRecord. I use this in several DALs to good effect. Now I want to modify it to use a dictionary or other data agnostic object so that I can use it in non DAL code --places I currently use reflection. I know almost nothing about OpCodes and IL. I just know that it works well and is faster than reflection.

I have tried to modify the CodeProject example and because of my ignorance with IL, I have gotten stuck on two lines.

One of them deals with dbnulls and I'm pretty sure I can just lose it, but I don't know if the lines preceding and following it are related and which of them will also need to go.
The other, I think, is the one that pulled the value out of the datarecord before and now needs to pull it out of the dictionary. I think I can replace the "getValueMethod" with my "property.Value" but I'm not sure.

I'm open to alternative/better ways of skinning this cat too.

Here's the code so far (the commented out lines are the ones I'm stuck on):

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Reflection.Emit;

public class Populator<T>
{
    private delegate T Load(Dictionary<string, object> properties);
    private Load _handler;
    private Populator() { }
    public T Build(Dictionary<string, object> properties)
    {
        return _handler(properties);
    }
    public static Populator<T> CreateBuilder(Dictionary<string, object> properties)
    {
        //private static readonly MethodInfo getValueMethod = typeof(IDataRecord).GetMethod("get_Item", new [] { typeof(int) });
        //private static readonly MethodInfo isDBNullMethod = typeof(IDataRecord).GetMethod("IsDBNull", new [] { typeof(int) });
        Populator<T> dynamicBuilder = new Populator<T>();
        DynamicMethod method = new DynamicMethod("Create", typeof(T), new[] { typeof(Dictionary<string, object>) }, typeof(T), true);
        ILGenerator generator = method.GetILGenerator();
        LocalBuilder result = generator.DeclareLocal(typeof(T));
        generator.Emit(OpCodes.Newobj, typeof(T).GetConstructor(Type.EmptyTypes));
        generator.Emit(OpCodes.Stloc, result);
        int i = 0;
        foreach (var property in properties)
        {
            PropertyInfo propertyInfo = typeof(T).GetProperty(property.Key, BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.IgnoreCase | BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy | BindingFlags.Default);
            Label endIfLabel = generator.DefineLabel();

            if (propertyInfo != null && propertyInfo.GetSetMethod() != null)
            {
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0);
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldc_I4, i);
                //generator.Emit(OpCodes.Callvirt, isDBNullMethod);
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Brtrue, endIfLabel);

                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldloc, result);
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0);
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldc_I4, i);
                //generator.Emit(OpCodes.Callvirt, getValueMethod);

                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Unbox_Any, property.Value.GetType());
                generator.Emit(OpCodes.Callvirt, propertyInfo.GetSetMethod());
                generator.MarkLabel(endIfLabel);
            }
            i++;
        }

        generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldloc, result);
        generator.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
        dynamicBuilder._handler = (Load)method.CreateDelegate(typeof(Load));
        return dynamicBuilder;
    }
}

EDIT:

Using Marc Gravell's PropertyDescriptor implementation (with HyperDescriptor) the code is simplified a hundred-fold. I now have the following test:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using Hyper.ComponentModel;

namespace Test
{
    class Person
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; }
    }

    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            HyperTypeDescriptionProvider.Add(typeof(Person));
            var properties = new Dictionary<string, object> { { "Id", 10 }, { "Name", "Fred Flintstone" } };
            Person person = new Person();
            DynamicUpdate(person, properties);
            Console.WriteLine("Id: {0}; Name: {1}", person.Id, person.Name);
            Console.ReadKey();
        }

        public static void DynamicUpdate<T>(T entity, Dictionary<string, object> properties)
        {
            foreach (PropertyDescriptor propertyDescriptor in TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(T)))
                if (properties.ContainsKey(propertyDescriptor.Name))
                    propertyDescriptor.SetValue(entity, properties[propertyDescriptor.Name]);
        }
    }
}

Any comments on performance considerations for both TypeDescriptor.GetProperties() & PropertyDescriptor.SetValue() are welcome...

Edit: all of this is basically what dapper does - but dapper is much more optimized. If I was writing this answer today, it would read simply: "use dapper".

If you aren't hugely "up" on IL, there are alternatives that get you the speed of IL and the convenience of reflection.

First example:

HyperDescriptor - uses a custom PropertyDescriptor model that deals with the IL for you, so all you have is code like (plus the one-liner to enable HyperDescriptor):

public static IEnumerable<T> Read<T>(IDataReader reader) where T : class, new() 
{
    PropertyDescriptorCollection props =
        TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(T));

    PropertyDescriptor[] propArray = new PropertyDescriptor[reader.FieldCount];
    for (int i = 0; i < propArray.Length; i++)
    {
        propArray[i] = props[reader.GetName(i)];
    }
    while(reader.Read()) {
        T item = new T();
        for (int i = 0; i < propArray.Length; i++)
        {
            object value = reader.IsDBNull(i) ? null : reader[i];
            propArray[i].SetValue(item, value);
        }
        yield return item;
    }
}

Second example:

LINQ expressions - quite lengthy, but I've discussed this (and the above, it turns out) on usenet - see this archive.

Yeah,you can use code like this:

 for (int i = 0; i < dataRecord.FieldCount; i++)
                {

                    PropertyInfo propertyInfo = t.GetProperty(dataRecord.GetName(i));
                    LocalBuilder il_P = generator.DeclareLocal(typeof(PropertyInfo));

                    Label endIfLabel = generator.DefineLabel();

.... ...
