Get property with expression as a method input
Is there an expression that I can have as my method input to make this call work.
public class Person
{
public string FirstName {get;set;}
public string LastName {get;set;}
public int Age {get;set;}
}
var obj = BuildIt.Build(Person.FirstName, Person.LastName, Person.Age);
I know that I can do it like this:
var obj = BuildIt.Build((Person p) => p.FirstName, (Person p) => p.LastName, (Person p) => p.Age);
But that just feels clumsy and if there is more properties that I want into the method it is a lot of code to write.
So something that works like the nameof() keyword :)
Best regards
