iterate through properties [modified]
-
Hey all, I was looking for a way to iterate through all properties for a given control, but am only finding ways to access individual properties. I am generating lists of all controls on a target form, but would also like to list all properties for each. Regards. -- modified at 18:48 Sunday 2nd September, 2007

Use reflection. See the documentation for the
System.Reflectionnamespace Off the top of my head something like this will get you all the properties on a class (not just controls, any class)Type controlType = myControl.GetType();
PropertyInfo[] properties = controlType.GetProperties();DISCLAIMER: This is as I remember it, I haven't checked that the real methods are exactly as stated.
