Assume that in your BE class you have certain properties to match with table fields. I want to expose descriptive name for each of these properties. for example to show it as column header in grid.
For example, there is a property called
FirstName
. I want to expose it's descriptive name as First Name
in BE define this.
[DisplayName("First Name"), Description("First Name of the Member")]
public string FirstName
{
get { return _firstName; }
set { _firstName = value; }
}
You can read these details of each property as below;
PropertyDescriptorCollection propertiesCol = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(objectBE);
PropertyDescriptor property;
for (int i = 0; i < propertiesCol.Count; i++)
{
property = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(objectBE)[i];
/*
// Access the Property Name, Display Name and Description as follows
property.Name // Returns "FirstName"
property.DisplayName // Returns "First Name"
property.Description // Returns "First Name of the Member"
*/
}
* where objectBE
is the object instance of BE class.
