我可以用下面的代码做到这一点。不需要编写长而复杂的代码。

 protected void sort_array(string field_name, string asc_desc)
        {

            objArrayList= Sort(objArrayList, field_name, asc_desc);
        }

        protected List<ArrayType> Sort(List<ArrayType> input, string property, string asc_desc)
        {
            if (asc_desc == "ASC")
            {

                return input.OrderBy(p => p.GetType()
                                           .GetProperty(property)
                                           .GetValue(p, null)).ToList();
            }
            else
            {
                return input.OrderByDescending(p => p.GetType()
                                               .GetProperty(property)
                                               .GetValue(p, null)).ToList();
            }
        }

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

                                {
                                    var cs = arr[i];
                                    val = cs.Target(cs, val);

                                return val;

                        }
                        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);

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

这个答案是对@John Sheehan - Runscope提供的解决方案需要一个示例的评论的回应

请为我们其他人提供一个例子。

在DAL(数据访问层)，

IEnumerable版本:

public  IEnumerable<Order> GetOrders()
{
    // i use Dapper to return IEnumerable<T> using Query<T>
    //.. do stuff

    return orders  // IEnumerable<Order>
}

IQueryable版本

public IQueryable<Order> GetOrdersAsQuerable()
{
    IEnumerable<Order> qry= GetOrders();

    // use the built-in extension method  AsQueryable in  System.Linq namespace
    return qry.AsQueryable();            
}

现在你可以使用IQueryable版本来绑定，例如Asp.net中的GridView和排序的好处(你不能使用IEnumerable版本进行排序)

我使用Dapper作为ORM并构建IQueryable版本，并在asp.net中的GridView中使用排序。

你可以用这个:

        public List<Book> Books(string orderField, bool desc, int skip, int take)
{
    var propertyInfo = typeof(Book).GetProperty(orderField);

    return _context.Books
        .Where(...)
        .OrderBy(p => !desc ? propertyInfo.GetValue(p, null) : 0)
        .ThenByDescending(p => desc ? propertyInfo.GetValue(p, null) : 0)
        .Skip(skip)
        .Take(take)
        .ToList();
}

我想使用反射来获得你想要排序的任何属性是可行的:

IEnumerable<T> myEnumerables
var query=from enumerable in myenumerables
          where some criteria
          orderby GetPropertyValue(enumerable,"SomeProperty")
          select enumerable

private static object GetPropertyValue(object obj, string property)
{
    System.Reflection.PropertyInfo propertyInfo=obj.GetType().GetProperty(property);
    return propertyInfo.GetValue(obj, null);
}

注意，使用反射比直接访问属性要慢得多，因此必须研究性能。
