我无意中发现了这个问题。

使用Marc的ApplyOrder实现，我把一个Extension方法组合在一起，处理类似sql的字符串，如:

list.OrderBy("MyProperty DESC, MyOtherProperty ASC");

详情可以在这里找到:http://aonnull.blogspot.com/2010/08/dynamic-sql-like-linq-orderby-extension.html

只是无意中发现了这首古老的…

要在没有动态LINQ库的情况下做到这一点，只需要如下所示的代码。这涵盖了包括嵌套属性在内的大多数常见场景。

为了让它与IEnumerable<T>一起工作，你可以添加一些包装器方法，通过AsQueryable -但下面的代码是需要的核心表达式逻辑。

public static IOrderedQueryable<T> OrderBy<T>(
    this IQueryable<T> source, 
    string property)
{
    return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "OrderBy");
}

public static IOrderedQueryable<T> OrderByDescending<T>(
    this IQueryable<T> source, 
    string property)
{
    return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "OrderByDescending");
}

public static IOrderedQueryable<T> ThenBy<T>(
    this IOrderedQueryable<T> source, 
    string property)
{
    return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "ThenBy");
}

public static IOrderedQueryable<T> ThenByDescending<T>(
    this IOrderedQueryable<T> source, 
    string property)
{
    return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "ThenByDescending");
}

static IOrderedQueryable<T> ApplyOrder<T>(
    IQueryable<T> source, 
    string property, 
    string methodName) 
{
    string[] props = property.Split('.');
    Type type = typeof(T);
    ParameterExpression arg = Expression.Parameter(type, "x");
    Expression expr = arg;
    foreach(string prop in props) {
        // use reflection (not ComponentModel) to mirror LINQ
        PropertyInfo pi = type.GetProperty(prop);
        expr = Expression.Property(expr, pi);
        type = pi.PropertyType;
    }
    Type delegateType = typeof(Func<,>).MakeGenericType(typeof(T), type);
    LambdaExpression lambda = Expression.Lambda(delegateType, expr, arg);

    object result = typeof(Queryable).GetMethods().Single(
            method => method.Name == methodName
                    && method.IsGenericMethodDefinition
                    && method.GetGenericArguments().Length == 2
                    && method.GetParameters().Length == 2)
            .MakeGenericMethod(typeof(T), type)
            .Invoke(null, new object[] {source, lambda});
    return (IOrderedQueryable<T>)result;
}

编辑:如果你想把它和动态混合在一起，它会变得更有趣——尽管注意动态只适用于LINQ-to-Objects (orm的表达式树等不能真正表示动态查询——MemberExpression不支持它)。但是这里有一种用LINQ-to-Objects实现它的方法。注意，Hashtable的选择是由于有利的锁定语义:

using Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Dynamic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
static class Program
{
    private static class AccessorCache
    {
        private static readonly Hashtable accessors = new Hashtable();

        private static readonly Hashtable callSites = new Hashtable();

        private static CallSite<Func<CallSite, object, object>> GetCallSiteLocked(
            string name) 
        {
            var callSite = (CallSite<Func<CallSite, object, object>>)callSites[name];
            if(callSite == null)
            {
                callSites[name] = callSite = CallSite<Func<CallSite, object, object>>
                    .Create(Binder.GetMember(
                                CSharpBinderFlags.None, 
                                name, 
                                typeof(AccessorCache),
                                new CSharpArgumentInfo[] { 
                                    CSharpArgumentInfo.Create(
                                        CSharpArgumentInfoFlags.None, 
                                        null) 
                                }));
            }
            return callSite;
        }

        internal static Func<dynamic,object> GetAccessor(string name)
        {
            Func<dynamic, object> accessor = (Func<dynamic, object>)accessors[name];
            if (accessor == null)
            {
                lock (accessors )
                {
                    accessor = (Func<dynamic, object>)accessors[name];
                    if (accessor == null)
                    {
                        if(name.IndexOf('.') >= 0) {
                            string[] props = name.Split('.');
                            CallSite<Func<CallSite, object, object>>[] arr 
                                = Array.ConvertAll(props, GetCallSiteLocked);
                            accessor = target =>
                            {

                                for (int i = 0; i < arr.Length; i++)
                                {
                                    var cs = arr[i];
                                    val = cs.Target(cs, val);
                                }
                                return val;
                            };
                        } else {
                            var callSite = GetCallSiteLocked(name);
                            accessor = target =>
                            {
                                return callSite.Target(callSite, (object)target);
                            };
                        }
                        accessors[name] = accessor;
                    }
                }
            }
            return accessor;
        }
    }

    public static IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> OrderBy(
        this IEnumerable<dynamic> source, 
        string property)
    {
        return Enumerable.OrderBy<dynamic, object>(
            source, 
            AccessorCache.GetAccessor(property), 
            Comparer<object>.Default);
    }

    public static IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> OrderByDescending(
        this IEnumerable<dynamic> source, 
        string property)
    {
        return Enumerable.OrderByDescending<dynamic, object>(
            source, 
            AccessorCache.GetAccessor(property), 
            Comparer<object>.Default);
    }

    public static IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> ThenBy(
        this IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> source, 
        string property)
    {
        return Enumerable.ThenBy<dynamic, object>(
            source, 
            AccessorCache.GetAccessor(property), 
            Comparer<object>.Default);
    }

    public static IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> ThenByDescending(
        this IOrderedEnumerable<dynamic> source, 
        string property)
    {
        return Enumerable.ThenByDescending<dynamic, object>(
            source, 
            AccessorCache.GetAccessor(property), 
            Comparer<object>.Default);
    }

    static void Main()
    {
        dynamic a = new ExpandoObject(), 
                b = new ExpandoObject(), 
                c = new ExpandoObject();
        a.X = "abc";
        b.X = "ghi";
        c.X = "def";
        dynamic[] data = new[] { 
            new { Y = a },
            new { Y = b }, 
            new { Y = c } 
        };

        var ordered = data.OrderByDescending("Y.X").ToArray();
        foreach (var obj in ordered)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(obj.Y.X);
        }
    }
}

你可以添加它:

public static IEnumerable<T> OrderBy( this IEnumerable<T> input, string queryString) {
    //parse the string into property names
    //Use reflection to get and sort by properties
    //something like

    foreach( string propname in queryString.Split(','))
        input.OrderBy( x => GetPropertyValue( x, propname ) );

    // I used Kjetil Watnedal's reflection example
}

GetPropertyValue函数来自Kjetil Watnedal的答案

问题是为什么?任何这样的排序都会在运行时抛出异常，而不是在编译时抛出异常(如D2VIANT的答案)。

如果你正在处理Linq to Sql, orderby是一个表达式树，它将被转换为Sql以执行。

我还发现了一些有趣的东西。 如果你的数据源是一个数据表，你可以使用动态排序而不使用动态Linq

DataTable orders = dataSet.Tables["SalesOrderHeader"];
EnumerableRowCollection<DataRow> query = from order in orders.AsEnumerable()
                                         orderby order.Field<DateTime>("OrderDate")
                                         select order;
DataView view = query.AsDataView();
bindingSource1.DataSource = view;

参考:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb669083.aspx(使用DataSetExtensions)

下面是另一种将其转换为DataView的方法:

DataTable contacts = dataSet.Tables["Contact"];    
DataView view = contacts.AsDataView();    
view.Sort = "LastName desc, FirstName asc";    
bindingSource1.DataSource = view;
dataGridView1.AutoResizeColumns();

感谢Maarten(在LINQ中使用PropertyInfo对象查询一个集合)，我得到了这个解决方案:

myList.OrderByDescending(x => myPropertyInfo.GetValue(x, null)).ToList();

在我的情况下，我在一个“ColumnHeaderMouseClick”(WindowsForm)上工作，所以只发现特定的列按下及其对应的PropertyInfo:

foreach (PropertyInfo column in (new Process()).GetType().GetProperties())
{
    if (column.Name == dgvProcessList.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Name)
    {}
}

OR

PropertyInfo column = (new Process()).GetType().GetProperties().Where(x => x.Name == dgvProcessList.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Name).First();

(确保你的列名称与对象属性匹配)

干杯

如果您正在使用规范(例如Ardalis规范)

using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

namespace TestExtensions;

public static class IQueryableExtensions
{
    public static void ApplyOrder<T>(ISpecificationBuilder<T> query, string propertyName, bool ascendingOrder)
    {
        if (ascendingOrder)
            query.OrderBy(T => EF.Property<object>(T!, propertyName));
        else
            query.OrderByDescending(T => EF.Property<object>(T!, propertyName));
    }
}
