Create Generic Expression from string property name in C#

Create Generic Expression from string property name in C#

You can create a generic expression from a string property name in C# using the System.Linq.Expressions namespace.

Here's an example of how to create a generic expression from a string property name:

using System; using System.Linq.Expressions; public class MyClass { public int MyProperty { get; set; } } public static class ExpressionHelper { public static Expression<Func<T, object>> GetExpression<T>(string propertyName) { var parameter = Expression.Parameter(typeof(T), "x"); var property = Expression.Property(parameter, propertyName); var convert = Expression.Convert(property, typeof(object)); return Expression.Lambda<Func<T, object>>(convert, parameter); } } // Usage: var expression = ExpressionHelper.GetExpression<MyClass>("MyProperty");

In this example, we define a MyClass class with a MyProperty property, and a GetExpression method that takes a generic type T and a string propertyName, and returns a generic expression that retrieves the specified property from an instance of T.

The GetExpression method creates a ParameterExpression that represents the instance of T, and a MemberExpression that represents the specified property. It then creates a ConvertExpression that converts the property value to an object type, and returns a lambda expression that takes an instance of T and returns the converted property value as an object.

To use the GetExpression method, you can pass the name of the property as a string, and the method will return a generic expression that can be used to retrieve the property value from an instance of the specified type.
