SetProperty and GetProperty with C# Reflection

I’ll make a post soon, comparing Ruby on Rails to C# with ASP.NET MVC, but this here is atomic and might be of help for one or two readers. If you want to set and get properties in C# in a type-agnostic way, these are the functions you want to put into a library class [...]

Getting MySQL 5.0 to work in Ruby 1.9.1 on Windows 7
