Mapping collections using AutoMapper

automapper, c#

Solution

You don't need to setup your mapping for collections, just the element types. So just:

Mapper.CreateMap<X, Y>();
Mapper.Map<X[], Collection<Y>>(objectToMap);

Problem

I'm trying to map an array into an `ICollection` of type `<T>.` Basically I want to be able to do: ``` Mapper.CreateMap<X[], Y>(); ``` Where `Y` is `Collection<T>` Any ideas?
