Reflection in C# allows you to inspect types, methods, properties, and other elements of your code at runtime. This can be useful for tasks like dynamically accessing property values. To get a property value using reflection in C#, you can use the `GetProperty` method from the `Type` class, followed by the `GetValue` method.<\/p>\n

Here is an example of how to get the value of a property using reflection in C#:<\/p>\n

“`csharp
\nusing System;
\nusing System.Reflection;<\/p>\n

public class Person
\n{
\n public string Name { get; set; }
\n public int Age { get; set; }
\n}<\/p>\n

class Program
\n{
\n static void Main()
\n {
\n Person person = new Person { Name = “John Doe”, Age = 30 };<\/p>\n

Type type = person.GetType();
\n PropertyInfo property = type.GetProperty(“Name”);
\n string value = (string)property.GetValue(person);<\/p>\n

Console.WriteLine(value); \/\/ Output: John Doe
\n }
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n

In this example, we create a `Person` class with `Name` and `Age` properties. We then use reflection to get the value of the `Name` property for an instance of the `Person` class.<\/p>\n

Now that you know how to get a property value using reflection in C#, let’s address some common questions related to this topic.<\/p>\n
