Title
Body
Below is some code I use to get the initial state of all public properties in a class for IsDirty checking. What's the easiest way to see if a property is IEnumerable? Cheers, Berryl protected virtual Dictionary<string, object> _GetPropertyValues() { return _getPublicPropertiesWithSetters() .ToDictionary(pi => pi.Name, pi => pi.GetValue(this, null)); } private IEnumerable<PropertyInfo> _getPublicPropertiesWithSetters() { return GetType().GetProperties().Where(pi => pi.CanWrite); } UPDATE What I wound up doing was adding a few library extensions as follows public static bool IsNonStringEnumerable(this PropertyInfo pi) { return pi != null && pi.PropertyType.IsNonStringEnumerable(); } public static bool IsNonStringEnumerable(this object instance) { return instance != null && instance.GetType().IsNonStringEnumerable(); } public static bool IsNonStringEnumerable(this Type type) { if (type == null || type == typeof(string)) return false; return typeof(IEnumerable).IsAssignableFrom(type); }
