Loop through model and build SqlCommand obj - asp.net-mvc-3

Question

I have an MVC3 application and I want to pass my model to a method which builds a command object. The reason being that I have lots of methods with command objects and I want the code to be better written.
private static SqlCommand CommandObj(vw_UserManager_Model model)
{
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand();
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
foreach (var item in model)
{
switch (property.PropertyType.Name)
{
case "String":
command.Parameters.Add("#" + property.Name, SqlDbType.VarChar).SqlValue = property;
break;
case "Guid":
command.Parameters.Add("#" + property.Name, SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).SqlValue = property;
break;
case "Int32":
command.Parameters.Add("#" + property.Name, SqlDbType.Int).SqlValue = property;
break;
case "Boolean":
//switch (property.Name.FirstOrDefault())
//{
// case true:
// command.Parameters.Add("#isactive", SqlDbType.Bit).SqlValue = 1;
// command.Parameters.Add("#isapproved", SqlDbType.Bit).SqlValue = 1;
// break;
// case false:
// command.Parameters.Add("#isactive", SqlDbType.Bit).SqlValue = 0;
// command.Parameters.Add("#isapproved", SqlDbType.Bit).SqlValue = 0;
// break;
//}
break;
}
}
return command;
}
Currently this code won't compile because I can't enumerate through my model like this. What I want to do is loop through each item in the model and do a switch statement to build the correct dbType parameter.
Anyone have suggestions for how to change this code?
Thanks!!

Answer 1

Hopefully I understood your question. Seems like you may be trying to do something like this. Here's my model class:
public class Person
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
public bool Married { get; set; }
}
Here's the code that loops through the model properties:
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
Person person = new Person();
var modelProperties = person.GetType().GetProperties();
foreach (var property in modelProperties)
{
switch (property.PropertyType.Name)
{
case "String":
Console.WriteLine("Property {0} is a string", property.Name);
break;
case "Int32":
Console.WriteLine("Property {0} is an int", property.Name);
break;
case "Boolean":
Console.WriteLine("Property {0} is a boolean", property.Name);
break;
default:
Console.WriteLine("Type unknown!");
break;
}
}
Hope this helps.
