Reflector Release Notes

v4

4.1 - May 29, 2026

Feature

New ReflectorExpressionExtensions — strongly-typed, expression-based property access. GetPropertyName(x => x.Prop) extracts a property name from a lambda, and IReflectorClass gains GetProperty, GetValue, and SetValue overloads that take an x => x.Prop expression instead of a string key. Unary boxing conversions for value/nullable types are handled automatically

4.0 - May 18, 2026

BREAKING Enhancement

Package renamed from Shiny.Reflector to Shiny.Extensions.Reflector — Reflector is now part of the Shiny.Extensions family. Update package references in your csproj from <PackageReference Include="Shiny.Reflector"/> to <PackageReference Include="Shiny.Extensions.Reflector"/>

BREAKING Enhancement

Root namespace changed from Shiny.Reflector to Shiny.Extensions.Reflector. Update using Shiny.Reflector; to using Shiny.Extensions.Reflector; (or rely on the implicit <Using Include="Shiny.Extensions.Reflector"/> injected by the package targets)

Enhancement

Repository moved to https://github.com/shinyorg/Shiny.Extensions — version numbering aligned with the rest of the Shiny.Extensions family
