static member TrySetField : 
        instance : Object * 
        fieldName : string * 
        ignoreCase : bool * 
        value : Object *

-> bool 

Parameters

instance  Object

An instance whose field is about to be set.

fieldName  String

The name of the field to be set.

ignoreCase  Boolean

to ignore case; to regard case.

value  Object

The value to set.

way  ReflectionWays  (Optional)

The preferred reflection way. TypeDescriptor way is not applicable for fields. This parameter is optional.
Default value: Auto.

Return Value

fieldName can refer public and non-public fields.

If you already have a FieldInfo instance use the SetField(Object, FieldInfo, Object, ReflectionWays) method for better performance.

If way is Auto, then the DynamicDelegate way will be used, except when the .NET Standard 2.0 version of the KGySoft.CoreLibraries assembly is referenced and the field is read-only or belongs to a value type (struct), in which case the SystemReflection way will be used.
