  Get all profile property values?

  Mar 03, 2011 06:08 AM|LINK

  Hello!
  I have been struggling with this for a while now, and i realized that i'm stuck.
  What i'm trying to acheive is to get all the profile properties for a user profile in
  one sweep. The property names are set in web.config, e.g. FirstName, LastName, ZipCode.
  
  I know that i can get the values for this in this way:
  
  

  var profile = ProfileBase.Create(member.UserName);
  string FirstName = Convert.ToString(profile["FirstName"]);
  string ZipCode = Convert.ToString(profile["ZipCode"]);

  
  I don't want to code in "FirstName" etc, in case i update the profile properties at a later stage.
  Is thera a way to somehow iterate through all properties and get the values without hardcoding the property names in the code?

  
  Thanks in advance!

  You can use Reflection to get all properties

  using System.Web.Profile;
  using System.Reflection;
  
  
  ProfileBase profile = System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create("Your User Name here");
  PropertyInfo[] properties = profile.GetType().GetProperties();
  foreach (PropertyInfo property in properties)
  {
  string strPropertyName = property.GetValue(profile, null).ToString();
  }
