extension method as a way to rename property

Question

Some class has ugly field called URL, but Id rather call it file.

public static void setFile(this AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer mp, string filename) {
    mp.URL = filename;
}

and

public static string file(this AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer mp) {
     return mp.URL;
}

Is there any way to not use setFile, but make file act like property?

Answer 1

I think what you're after is extension properties, which don't exist. The extension methods require () to follow the method name when called.
