I have a class structure below. I am getting this error. Am i missing something here?
Object does not match target type.
Class Structure
public class Schedule
{
public Schedule() { Name = ""; StartDate = DateTime.MinValue; LectureList = new List<Lecture>(); }
public string Name { get; set; }
public DateTime StartDate { get; set; }
public List<Lecture> LectureList { get; set; }
}
public class Lecture
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Credit { get; set; }
}
What i am trying:
Schedule s = new Schedule();
Type t = Type.GetType("Lecture");
object obj = Activator.CreateInstance(t);
obj.GetType().GetProperty("Name").SetValue(obj, "Math");
obj.GetType().GetProperty("Credit").SetValue(obj, 1);
PropertyInfo pi = s.GetType().GetProperty("LectureList");
Type ti = Type.GetType(pi.PropertyType.AssemblyQualifiedName);
ti.GetMethod("Add").Invoke(pi, new object[] { obj });
It should be something like this:
// gets metadata of List<Lecture>.Add method
var addMethod = pi.PropertyType.GetMethod("Add");
// retrieves current LectureList value to call Add method
var lectureList = pi.GetValue(s);
// calls s.LectureList.Add(obj);
addMethod.Invoke(lectureList, new object[] { obj });
UPD. Here's the fiddle link.
