Does casting an IList<T> to an array of type T[] cause enumeration?
.net, arrays, c#, ilist
Solution
No, it won't enumerate anything. It will either succeed if `argument` actually is a `T[]`, or throw an `InvalidCastException` exception if it isn't. (Or return null if `argument` is null.)
Problem
I have a method that looks like: ``` T[] field; public Method(IList<T> argument) { this.field = (T[])argument; } ``` When the body of the method is executed does enumeration take place during the cast? Would that change if the underlying type was different?
