The CanWrite property of the PropertyDescription class indicates whether the property it describes can be written to. This is a boolean value that returns true if the property is writable, and false otherwise.
The CanWrite property of the PropertyDescription class indicates whether the property it describes can be written to. This is a boolean value that returns true if the property is writable, and false otherwise.
Use the CanWrite property to determine if a property can be set or modified. This is particularly useful when dynamically interacting with properties, such as when using reflection or building tools that need to manipulate object properties.
// Example of using the CanWrite property
PropertyDescription propertyDescription = ...; // Assume this is initialized
if (propertyDescription.CanWrite)
{
// The property can be written to
object obj = ...; // The object instance
object value = ...; // The value to set
propertyDescription.SetValue(obj, value);
}
else
{
// The property is read-only
Console.WriteLine("The property cannot be written to.");
}
