[RESOLVED] How to get the type of a generic collection?

[angedelamort]

Hello,

instead of trying to explain my question, here a simple example.


List<int> list = new List<int>();
Type listType = list.GetType();

Type listItemType = listType.GetTypeMagicly(); // <-- This is what I'm trying to get.


So, I'm trying to get the type used by the list. I know it's probably possible, since I'm able to see it in a string when debugging. I just don't know how to get the typeof(int).

Thanks in advance.

After some try and error, I found out the method:

type.GetGenericArguments()

Hope it helps someone in the future...

Hey thanks, I was wondering this myself a few days ago. :)
