Can i use reflection in linq for objects?
Below is my code:
public class ExpressionBuilder<T>
{
public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> BuildStringCondition(string propertyName, string value)
{
Expression<Func<T, bool>> tempFilter = p => p.GetType().GetProperty(propertyName).GetValue(p, null).ToString().Contains(value);
return tempFilter;
}
}
I just want to dynamically generate an expression. When I call the method:
Expression<Func<plcontrol, bool>> conditions = ExpressionBuilder<plcontrol>.BuildStringCondition("code", "%001")
int count = _db.plcontrols.Count(conditions);
System error message as below:
"LINQ to Entities does not recognize a method
System.Object GetValue(System.Object, System.Object[])
, and this method cannot be translated into the Expression store."
My question is: How can I use reflection in linq for entieies or How can I dynamically reference the property name of an object
thank.
