How to enumerate all dependency properties of control?
See the question and my original answer on StackOverflowUsing reflection is not needed (and a bad idead IMHO) because the framework has already utility classes for this (but they're not obvious to find :-).
Here is an answer based on this article: Enumerate Bindings and the LocalValueEnumerator Structure
public static IEnumerable<DependencyProperty> EnumerateDependencyProperties(this DependencyObject obj)
{
if (obj != null)
{
LocalValueEnumerator lve = obj.GetLocalValueEnumerator();
while (lve.MoveNext())
{
yield return lve.Current.Property;
}
}
}
Here is another answer based on this other article: Getting list of all dependency/attached properties of an Object that uses MarkupWriter.GetMarkupObjectFor Method.
public static IEnumerable<DependencyProperty> EnumerateDependencyProperties(object element)
{
if (element != null)
{
MarkupObject markupObject = MarkupWriter.GetMarkupObjectFor(element);
if (markupObject != null)
{
foreach (MarkupProperty mp in markupObject.Properties)
{
if (mp.DependencyProperty != null)
yield return mp.DependencyProperty;
}
}
}
}
public static IEnumerable<DependencyProperty> EnumerateAttachedProperties(object element)
{
if (element != null)
{
MarkupObject markupObject = MarkupWriter.GetMarkupObjectFor(element);
if (markupObject != null)
{
foreach (MarkupProperty mp in markupObject.Properties)
{
if (mp.IsAttached)
yield return mp.DependencyProperty;
}
}
}
}
