How to handle this exception?In the following C# code, I tried to get the values for each property in an object: public void WriteObjectValue(object obj) { Type objectType = obj.GetType(); PropertyInfo[] properties = objectType.GetProperties(); foreach (PropertyInfo property in properties) { System.Object propertyValue = property.GetValue(obj, null); Console.WriteLine(propertyValue.ToString()); } } This worked fine, except in the following situation: If the passed object obj was defined like the follows Public class IntObjClass { int? deptId; int? sectionId; public int DeptId {set {deptId = value;}} public int SectioinId {set {sectionId = value;}} } and only sectionId was assigned a value, say 100, while deptId was left null. At this situation, the foreach loop will throw an exception at System.Object propertyValue = property.GetValue(), complaining deptId was null. Is there a way to get around this? (I don't want to use try{} catch {} to handle this exception) Thanks a lot for your help. Hello,
Have you tried this? if (propertyValue == null) { Console.WriteLine("<null>"); } else { Console.WriteLine(propertyValue.ToString()); } Best regards, Henning Krause Show quoteHide quote "Andrew" <And***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:28BFF904-952F-4194-8987-7C7D6D5DD246@microsoft.com... > Hello, friends, > > In the following C# code, I tried to get the values for each property in > an > object: > > public void WriteObjectValue(object obj) > { > Type objectType = obj.GetType(); > PropertyInfo[] properties = objectType.GetProperties(); > > foreach (PropertyInfo property in properties) > { > System.Object propertyValue = property.GetValue(obj, > null); > Console.WriteLine(propertyValue.ToString()); > } > } > > This worked fine, except in the following situation: > > If the passed object obj was defined like the follows > > Public class IntObjClass > { > int? deptId; > int? sectionId; > > public int DeptId {set {deptId = value;}} > public int SectioinId {set {sectionId = value;}} > > } > > and only sectionId was assigned a value, say 100, while deptId was left > null. > > At this situation, the foreach loop will throw an exception at > System.Object propertyValue = property.GetValue(), > complaining deptId was null. > > Is there a way to get around this?

propertyValue = property.GetValue(obj, null); throw the exception (Nullable object must have a value) before I had a chance to check if properValue was null or not. Any other ideas? Thanks.

getValue on a property with Set only attributes. It wont work.
