Pass a List of Series to SetSeries

Question

I am using DotNet.Highcharts in conjunction with Visual Studio 2010. I have created an array of Series: ``` List allSeries = new List(); ``` I then looped through a database and added several different Series. Then I created a Highchart and need to add the allSeries list to it. I have the code below that I used to create a Series one at a time. How can I take the allSeries list and pass it to SetSeries? ``` .SetSeries(new[] { new Series { Name = "Combiner 2", Data = new Data(myData2) }, new Series { Name = "Combiner 3", Data = new Data(myData3) } }); ```

Accepted Answer

if I am left to assume that the `myData2` and `myData3` objects are contained in or could be extracted from `allSeries`, then you should be able to do something like this:

```
.SetSeries(allSeries.Select(s=> new Series { Name = s.Name, Data = s.Data }));
```

EDIT: If set series isn't looking for an `IEnumerable<Series>` but instead needs `Object[]` or `Series[]`, then you could do this:

```
//casts series elements to object, then projects to array
.SetSeries(allSeries.Select(s=> (object)new Series { Name = s.Name, Data = s.Data }).ToArray());
```

or maybe this:

```
//projects series elements to array of series
.SetSeries(allSeries.Select(s=> new Series { Name = s.Name, Data = s.Data }).ToArray());
```

it all depends on what the method signature for `SetSeries` is.
