PropertyMappedNameCache

A cacher class for System.Reflection.PropertyInfo mapped names. It uses PropertyMapper internally to extract results and caches them for future use.

Use this class instead of the C# nameof(Class.Property) expression when working with property names.

Usability

Call the Get() method by passing a System.Reflection.PropertyInfo instance:

var properties = PropertyCache.Get<Person>();
properties
    .AsList()
    .ForEach(p =>
    {
        var mappedName = PropertyMappedNameCache.Get(p.PropertyInfo);
        // Use the 'mappedName' here
    })

Or via expression:

var mappedName = PropertyCache.Get<Person>(e => e.FirstName);
// Use the 'mappedName' here

The extraction checks for the Map attribute first, then falls back to implicit mapping, and finally uses PropertyInfo.Name from System.Reflection.
