Access class members

[n4nature]

In the code below, I want to access nth item of a list of class cPropertyValues, and return member variable that is represented by propertyName. I can do this by a simple string check on each member. But there are 50 members in cPropertyValues class. So is there a better way to access class members without performing individual comparison?

public string getPropertyValueByName(string propertyName)
        {
            List<cPropertyValues> list = GlobalClass.get_mPropertyValuesList;

            return (list[GlobalClass.itemIndex]).propertyName; //this won't work, since propertyName is not a member of cPropertyValues.

        }

Thanks!

What you're trying to do; and what your code is doing are very different.

I want to access the nth item of a list of class cPropertyValues

List<cPropertyValues] list = // etc;
cPropertyValues object = list[n];

I want to return member variable presented by propertyName

return object.getPropertyValue(propertyName);

This means you need to implement a method called getPropertyValue().

Thanks, got that working.
