The GetProperty method retrieves a PropertyDescription object for a specified property name within the type described by the TypeDescription instance. This method is useful for obtaining metadata about a property, such as its type, attributes, and other characteristics.
To use the GetProperty method, you need to have an instance of TypeDescription. Call the method with the name of the property you want to retrieve information about. The method returns a PropertyDescription object if the property exists, or null if it does not.
// Assume 'typeDescription' is an instance of TypeDescription
string propertyName = "ExampleProperty";
PropertyDescription propertyDescription = typeDescription.GetProperty(propertyName);
if (propertyDescription != null)
{
// Use propertyDescription to access property metadata
Console.WriteLine($"Property Name: {propertyDescription.Name}");
Console.WriteLine($"Property Type: {propertyDescription.PropertyType}");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Property not found.");
}
