Add custom static classes for parsing

[OlegNadymov]

Hi!
Could you create a convenient way of adding my custom static classes which I can use for dynamic parsing?
I've used for System.Dynamic.Linq this way https://stackoverflow.com/a/18313782. It uses Reflection. So it's not convenient.
I hope you can explain me how can I do it in System.Linq.Dynamic.Core.

Thank you in advance!

Did you try this solution ?

Or else I should make this method public:

Hi @StefH !
Yes, I did. I had tried this solution and wrote about it in my message. The solution is based on Reflection. It's not convenient.

Could you make the method with the signature is like below:
public static void TryAdd(Type type, int x)
And what is parameter "x" mean here?

Or if you don't mind I can fork your project and create pull request.
What do you think?

Sorry. I copy pasted the wrong link.

Just scroll down on that stackoverflow page and look for DynamicLinqType. That would be an option.

It's a quite good solution. But I have to add reference to System.Linq.Dynamic.Core in all projects in which I have classes for dynamic parsing from. Also I need to decorate the classes with DynamicLinqTypeAttirubute.
I can do it for my case. But if I have an external project I won't can do it.
So it would be great to have method like this public static void TryAdd(Type type, int x)

You can also extend the https://github.com/StefH/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/blob/master/src/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/CustomTypeProviders/DefaultDynamicLinqCustomTypeProvider.cs and add your types to the list there, see for example here : https://github.com/StefH/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/blob/master/src-console/ConsoleAppEF2.1.1/Program.cs#L22

Yes! It meets my needs! Thank you!
