Data Reader object to List type model Convert

How we can convert Data Reader object to List type model?
Most of developer are struggling while connecting with the DB, how to iterate those table data!
Developer may be go with DataTable fill using adapter concept, or it may be generic list concept.


I'm giving here pretty simple example for Mapping list.
 public static class Utility
    {
        public static List<T> DataReaderMappingToList<T>(IDataReader dr)
        {
            List<T> list = new List<T>();
            T obj = default(T);
            while (dr.Read())
            {
                obj = Activator.CreateInstance<T>();
                foreach (PropertyInfo prop in obj.GetType().GetProperties())
                {
                    if (!object.Equals(dr[prop.Name], DBNull.Value))
                    {
                        prop.SetValue(obj, dr[prop.Name], null);
                    }
                }
                list.Add(obj);
            }
            return list;
        }
    }

How we can access it?
// We are just passing command and iterating those kind of list.

 using (IDataReader dataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
                    {
                        stateDropdownAttribute = Utility.DataReaderMappingToList<StateDropdownAttribute>(dataReader);
                    }  

It's  pretty simple in this way to iterate it.
