[Solved] Testing a property Data Type

[sitefinitysteve]

Given the following method...

public void CheckProperty(string className, string propertyName) {
            MetaPersistentType metaPersistentType = this.Container.PersistentTypes.FirstOrDefault(pt => pt.Name.Equals(className));
            Assert.IsNotNull(metaPersistentType);

            MetaMember metaMember = metaPersistentType.Members.FirstOrDefault(mm => mm.PropertyName.Equals(propertyName));
            Assert.IsNotNull(metaMember, "Can't find Property:" + propertyName + " in " + className);
            Assert.IsInstanceOfType(metaMember, typeof(MetaPrimitiveMember), String.Format("Type mismatch on class {0}, property {1}, maybe it's a collection instead?", className, propertyName));
        }

Is there a way to use this to validate a datatype for the property?  I might have been staring at it too long, but I can't seem to find a property on the meta objects...

Hello Steve,

 If you would like to validate the type of the property you should go with the following approach:

MetaMember metaMember = metaPersistentType.Members.FirstOrDefault(mm => mm.PropertyName.Equals(propertyName));

MetaType memberType = metaMember.MemberType;

Assert.AreEqual(typeof(string).FullName, memberType.FullName);
