Prior to AutoMapper 8.0, I used this code to find a property mapping by string, example: entity model has property named "currency_id" and DTO has property named "currency". I have defined bi-directional mapping in AutoMapper, and I used this code to find source/target property relat
public static string GetDestinationPropertyFor<TSrc, TDst>(IMapper IMapper, string sourceProperty)
{
var mapper = AutoMapper.IMapper.ConfigurationProvider;
// TSrc = source generic type
// TDst = destination generic type
var map = mapper.FindTypeMapFor<TSrc, TDst>();
var propertyMap = map.GetPropertyMaps()
.FirstOrDefault(pm =>
pm.SourceMember.Name == sourceProperty
);
return propertyMap.DestinationProperty.Name;
}
In AutoMapper Profile:
this.CreateMap<EntityModels.contact, DTO.contact>()
.ForMember(m => m.currency, src => src.MapFrom(f => f.currency_id))
;
this.CreateMap<DTO.contact, EntityModels.contact>()
.ForMember(m => m.currency_id, src => src.MapFrom(f => f.currency))
;
When I called my method like this:
var _dboField = GetDestinationPropertyFor<DTO.contact, EntityModels.contact>(this.mapper, "currency");
Console.WriteLine(_dboField);
// output should be "currency_id"
After upgrading to AutoMapper 8.0 I got this error at build:
'TypeMap' does not contain a definition for 'GetPropertyMaps' and no accessible extension method 'GetPropertyMaps' accepting a first argument of type 'TypeMap' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
What are replacements for GetPropertyMaps in AutoMapper 8.0?
Thanks!
