Is it possible to add attributes to the generated members of an ExpandoObject instance?

I'm trying to use an ExpandoObject as the SelectedObject of a PropertyGrid. I know how to add the properties I want to the ExpandoObject:

public dynamic MakePropertyObject()
{
    dynamic expando = new ExpandoObject();
    var dictionary = expando as IDictionary<string, object>;
    foreach(MyClass m in PropertiesINeedToAdd)
        dictionary[m.Name] = m.Value;
    return expando;
}

This code's working fine- the debugger shows the names and values of expando's properties as expected.

However, none of the generated properties is showing up in the PropertyGrid when I set the return value of MakePropertyObject() to its SelectedObject property. I assume (perhaps falsely) that this is because the ExpandoObject's properties don't have any DisplayNameAttribute, DescriptionAttribute, or any of the other attributes used to control how properties are displayed in a PropertyGrid.

I've done some reading and some Googling, and I can't figure out if there's a way to decorate the generated properties of an 开发者_开发百科ExpandoObject with custom attributes. Does anyone know how this can be done, or of a better way to show an ExpandoObject in a PropertyGrid?

SOLUTION:

The answer provided by @Stephen Cleary was correct and helpful (thanks, Stephen). For others with the same problem, implementing ICustomTypeDescriptor worked perfectly for me.

As a side note, the object that implements ICustomTypeDescriptor provides the property and event descriptors for itself, not for another object. I thought the descriptor and the described were supposed to be linked by an attribute or something at first- it seemed confusing and redundant to me that an object should describe its own type, but that's indeed how PropertyGrids use the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface.

The problem is actually that reflection doesn't work as expected on dynamic types.

PropertyGrid uses reflection to examine its object's properties, and ExpandoObject doesn't have any (static) properties.

You can implement ICustomTypeDescriptor to "hijack" the reflection and query the (dynamic) properties of the ExpandoObject. The code for DynamicTypeDescriptorWrapper in this blog post would be a good starting point.
