Sets the property value of a specified object with optional index values for index properties.

The object whose property value will be set. The new property value. Optional index values for indexed properties. This value should be null for non-indexed properties. The array does not contain the type of arguments needed.-or- The property's set accessor is not found. -or- cannot be converted to the type of . In the .NET for Windows Store apps or the Portable Class Library, catch instead.The object does not match the target type, or a property is an instance property but is null. The number of parameters in does not match the number of parameters the indexed property takes. In the .NET for Windows Store apps or the Portable Class Library, catch the base class exception, , instead.There was an illegal attempt to access a private or protected method inside a class. An error occurred while setting the property value. For example, an index value specified for an indexed property is out of range. The property indicates the reason for the error.
