Title
Body
A string representation of an object instance property can be taken with Expression<Func<T>> : string propertyName = ((MemberExpression) property.Body).Member.Name; But what if I don't have (don't want to create) the instance? How do I get the property name in this case? Explained I need a string representation of a property name of some object. Let's say there is an entity public class Customer { public int ID; public string Name; } Now I want to pass the key expression of this entity to some other function, thus I need the string "ID", but I don't want to hardcode the string like SomeOtherFunction("ID") , instead I use the expression SomeOtherFunction(ExpressionReader.GetString(() => CustomerInstance.ID)) . For this to work I need to supply the entity instance. Now I want to do the same without creating the instance.
