Simple reflection form

Haven't you had some poco's (plain old CLR object) you just want to edit, but you had to make a form for each object?

The solution to this is dot net's reflection. The SimpleReflectionForm takes an object like the Customer below and shows this in a form.

public class Customer
{
   public Guid Id { get; set; }
   public string Name { get; set; }
   public int Age { get; set; }
   public bool Married { get; set; }
}

Just call the form:

Customer c = new Customer
{
 Id = Guid.NewGuid(),
 Name = "Frank",
 Age = 31,
 Married = true
};

using (SimpleReflectionForm f
    = new SimpleReflectionForm(c, "Id"))
{
  f.ShowDialog();
}

The following form is shown:


As you can see the Id is ignored, by the optional parameter string[] propertiesToExclude.
The form supports all native .net types (int, string, datetime, guid etc). Guid and numeric types are verified when the Ok button is pressed.
