dynamic in android xamarin

i have seen in the link below: Can execute Code Dynamically in monotouch?

that it is impossible to use dynamic in ios xamarin. how about in Andoid xamarin?

I tried to do the following:

            dynamic MyDynamic = new System.Dynamic.ExpandoObject();
            MyDynamic.A = "A";
            MyDynamic.B = "B";

However, when I want to access MyDinamic.A, it says that Unknown Member: A.

Can someone please help? Thanks.

Edit:I also have added the Microsoft.Csharp dll in the solution reference as per the screenshot:

Go to NuGet Package Manager > Manage NuGet packages menu. Then change Source to Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages. After adding, it should compile successfully.

I'm not sure which IDE did you use for developing your xamarin android app, by my side I used VS2015, and the error is

Missing compiler required member 'Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.CSharpArgumentInfo.Create'

This is because when use the dynamic keyword in your project. The assembly contains the C# runtime binder. To solve this issue, we need to add reference to Microsoft.CSharp library(Microsoft.CSharp.dll) in our project:

After adding this reference, your code runs well by my side.

But I'm not sure if the Xamarin.Android will limit the use of dynamic object, through I didn't find any limitation in xamarin's official document. For more information about dynamic object, you can refer to:

System.Dynamic.DynamicObject Class

System.Dynamic.ExpandoObject Class
