Summary
Shows how to use C# 4.0's DynamicObject to wrap access to properties and in this example ensure that properties on the wrapped object are called on the main UI thread.
Excerpt
"One of the most interesting (and potentially dangerous) new features in C# 4.0 is support for the dynamic type. It allows certain pieces of your code to bypass the normal compile-time type checking features that we have grown to know and love. You can use a dynamic object however you want to, and the C# compiler will ignore the members you use on it. At runtime, if the methods/properties/etc. your code tries to use are not actually present on the object, an exception is thrown. If they do exist, they will be linked to and invoked dynamically. This technique is called dynamic dispatch. What you lose in safety, you gain in flexibility."
