How to check whether a type is string in C#?

Question

I want to go through all the properties of a type and want to check whether a property type is not a string, how can I do it ?

My class is:

public class MarkerInfo {     public string Name { get; set; }     public byte[] Color { get; set; }     public TypeId Type { get; set; }     public bool IsGUIVisible { get; set; }      public MarkerInfo()     {         Color = new byte[4]; // A, R, G, B         IsGUIVisible = true;     } } 

the code I am using to check for type is:

foreach (var property in typeof(MarkerInfo).GetProperties()) {                    if (property.PropertyType is typeof(string))               } 

But this code is not working, any idea how to do that ?
