Using Reflection to fill a Business Layer object

Getting tired of endlessly assigning properties for business objects, I decided to try to make life easier on myself. So I developed a handy class, which takes a DataRow and fills a Business Layer object with that data. So now every one of my business object constructors is as simple as this:

        public MyItem(DataRow Row)
        {
            Converter.Fill(this, Row);
        }

The class that does all the conversion is as follows:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Reflection;

namespace MyNamespace.Data
{
    class Converter
    {
        public static void Fill(object LogicObject, DataRow Row)
        {
            Dictionary<string, PropertyInfo> props = new Dictionary<string,PropertyInfo>();
            foreach (PropertyInfo p in LogicObject.GetType().GetProperties())
                props.Add(p.Name, p);
            foreach (DataColumn col in Row.Table.Columns)
            {
                string name = col.ColumnName;
                if (Row[name] != DBNull.Value && props.ContainsKey(name))
                {
                    object item = Row[name];
                    PropertyInfo p = props[name];
                    if (p.PropertyType != col.DataType)
                        item = Convert.ChangeType(item, p.PropertyType);
                    p.SetValue(LogicObject, item, null);
                }
            }

        }
    }
}

The full class for MyItem could look something like this:

using System;
using System.Data;

namespace MyNamespace.Data
{
    public class MyItem
    {
        public int item_id { get; set; }
        public string item_name { get; set; }
        public DateTime item_expiry { get; set; }

        public MyItem(DataRow Row)
        {
            Converter.Fill(this, Row);
        }

        public static MyItem Select(int item_id)
        {
            DataRow row;
            // code to perform query and get row
            ...
            return new MyItem(row);
        }
    }
}

In this implementation of Converter, your business object properties have to have the same names as the column names in the database. However, the Converter could be modified to also accept a Dictionary (or array of KeyValuePair) that provides a mapping from database column names to object property names.
