reflection - How can I dynamically add a field to a class in C#

Question

Is there any way to add Field (or FieldInfo, maybe this is the same) to a class at runtime?

Answer 1

You can't alter a class definition at runtime. However, you can create a new class that inherits from the original class (if it's not sealed) and declares the field. You can do this by emitting the appropriate IL code using System.Reflection.Emit.
