Possible to cast generic list of type to a generic list of its super type?

You don't need reflection for this. LINQ, on the other hand, can help here: List myListOfJazzDancers = ...; List myListOfDancers = myListOfJazzDancers.Cast().ToList().

Thank you, it works. Then I realized that I can't really cast list of JazzDancers into list of Dancers and still have them be as JazzDancers, when it's possible to do that via using list . Add method and adding in actual instances of JazzDancers there.

On the other hand, if you are sure that it only contains JazzDancers, you might as well use a List in the first place... – Heinzi Nov 18 '10 at 15:02.

You can do it with a Linq query: dancers = jazzDancers.Cast(); If you need to do some kind of check on each jazzDancer, you just add a Where such as: dancers = jazzDancers. Where(jd => jd. SomeFiels == Something).Cast().

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
