C# How to generate an object implementing different interfaces dynamically at runtime?

Tags:

c#

dynamic

interface

I'm looking at how to solve a problem and I'm not even sure this might be possible at all in C# & .NET 3.5:

Say I have a limited number of interfaces, each describing a specific, non-related set of methods. Now I have a number real-world devices which each may implement just a subset of these interfaces.

During set-up of comms with these devices they will tell me which capabilities they have. I would now like to create an object implementing the interfaces (each resembling one capability of the device) so that higher up in my application architecture I'm able to:

  • write code against the aforementioned interfaces
  • test if that generated object implements a certain interface to see if certain actions are supported

I'm not sure at all which approach to use towards this problem. Any comments or approaches most welcome!

Use a mocking framework such as Moq, RhinoMocks or TypeMock Isolator

If you're looking to do something lower level, things like Castle DynamicProxy might be a good direction for you.
