Prior to AutoMapper 8.0, I used this code to find a property mapping by string, example: entity model has property named "currency_id" and DTO has property named "currency". I have defined bi-directional mapping in AutoMapper, and I used this code to find source/target property relat

    public static string GetDestinationPropertyFor<TSrc, TDst>(IMapper IMapper, string sourceProperty)

    {

        var mapper = AutoMapper.IMapper.ConfigurationProvider;



        // TSrc = source generic type

        // TDst = destination generic type

        var map = mapper.FindTypeMapFor<TSrc, TDst>();



        var propertyMap = map.GetPropertyMaps()

                              .FirstOrDefault(pm => 

                                    pm.SourceMember.Name == sourceProperty

                              );





        return propertyMap.DestinationProperty.Name;

    }

In AutoMapper Profile:

        this.CreateMap<EntityModels.contact, DTO.contact>()

            .ForMember(m => m.currency, src => src.MapFrom(f => f.currency_id))

        ;



        this.CreateMap<DTO.contact, EntityModels.contact>()

            .ForMember(m => m.currency_id, src => src.MapFrom(f => f.currency))

        ;

When I called my method like this:

var _dboField = GetDestinationPropertyFor<DTO.contact, EntityModels.contact>(this.mapper, "currency");



Console.WriteLine(_dboField);

// output should be "currency_id"

After upgrading to AutoMapper 8.0 I got this error at build:

'TypeMap' does not contain a definition for 'GetPropertyMaps' and no accessible extension method 'GetPropertyMaps' accepting a first argument of type 'TypeMap' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

What are replacements for GetPropertyMaps in AutoMapper 8.0?

Thanks!

As Lucian suggested, MemberMaps is a possible replacement. However, PropertyMaps does exactly the same as GetPropertyMaps in AutoMapper 7.0. DestinationProperty has also been renamed to DestinationMember.

AutoMapper 7.0 code:

public static string GetDestinationPropertyFor<TSrc, TDst>(IMapper IMapper, string sourceProperty)

    {

        var mapper = AutoMapper.IMapper.ConfigurationProvider;



        // TSrc = source generic type

        // TDst = destination generic type

        var map = mapper.FindTypeMapFor<TSrc, TDst>();



        var propertyMap = map.GetPropertyMaps()

                              .FirstOrDefault(pm => 

                                    pm.SourceMember.Name == sourceProperty

                              );





        return propertyMap.DestinationProperty.Name;

    }

AutoMapper 8.0 code:

public static string GetDestinationPropertyFor<TSrc, TDst>(IMapper IMapper, string sourceProperty)

    {

        var mapper = AutoMapper.IMapper.ConfigurationProvider;



        // TSrc = source generic type

        // TDst = destination generic type

        var map = mapper.FindTypeMapFor<TSrc, TDst>();



        var propertyMap = map.PropertyMaps

                              .FirstOrDefault(pm => 

                                    pm.SourceMember.Name == sourceProperty

                              );





        return propertyMap.DestinationMember.Name;

    }
