I have an object which implements IList
interface, I want to cast it to IList<object>
or
List<object>
,
I tried
IList<object> a=(IList<object>)b;
List<object> a=(IList<object>)b;
IList<object> a=(List<object>)b;
List<object> a=(List<object>)b;
These are not working. Please help, thanks.
To clarify:
b is an object pass as parameter from outside. It implements IList interface. For example,
public class a
{
string name;
List<a> names;
}
public void func(object item)
{
object dataLeaves = data.GetType().GetProperty("names").GetValue(dataInput, null);
if (dataLeaves != null && dataLeaves.GetType().GetInterfaces().Any(t =>t.IsGenericType && t.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(IList<>)))
{
List<object> a=(List<object>) dataLeaves; //Need to convert the dataLeaves to list or IList
}
}
