Howto reflect object into an only at runtime known type?

Just use dynamic public static class DynamicCast { public static T Cast(object o) { return (T) (dynamic) o; } } This will automatically use any implicit/explicit operators that exist on the run-time type of o and/or the type T (Your code is incomplete because you’re searching only one of the two. ) The rest of your question is extremely unclear. You need to rephrase it.

The code is also unclear: what is the variable castedAssetType for? You are only assigning to it but then not using it.

Ehm, it doesn´t work. But please wait for some minutes. I´m trying something different... – Razer Apr 9 at 21:46 1 Could have been nice to mention that this requires C# 4.0 and the DLR – sehe Apr 9 at 22:37 @sehe: Should I also mention that this requires a compiler?

And that it requires a computer? Come on. – Timwi Apr 10 at 19:10 Well, not everyone has it, clearly the OP wasn't previously aware of it, AND you brisked him of for being extremely unclear?

I think it is fair to be a bit more forthcoming, or less demanding on the other hand. Gave you a +1 by the way, because it is obviously a good answer :) – sehe Apr 10 at 19:23.

I got the solution... I just had to add an generic method "Cast()" to AssetData. I just came on this idea, because now I know I can invoke a generic method ;) Here´s the solution: if (pinf.PropertyType. IsGenericType) { MethodInfo method = assetData.GetType().

GetMethod("Cast"). GetGenericMethodDefinition(). MakeGenericMethod( assetData.

AssetType); dynamic castedAsset = method. Invoke(assetData, null); pinf. SetValue(comp, castedAsset, null); } Sorry because of my unclear code.In future I will change this if I ask ;).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
