Hello-<br />
<br />
I have a vendor supplied DLL that I have been using with VB6, and am now switching over to C#.<br />
It seems like what used to be a &quot;Variant&quot; in VB6 now loosely translates to &quot;System.Object&quot; (maybe?)<br />
<br />
object rindexTypes; &nbsp;//1<br />
System.Array myArray; //2<br />
rindexTypes = _pfSet.get_SettingsFactorL<wbr />ist(BarraA<wbr />DT.FactorT<wbr />ypes.aegFA<wbr />CTOR_RISKI<wbr />NDEX); //3 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
myArray = (System.Array)rindexTypes;<wbr /> //4<br />
System.Console.WriteLine(m<wbr />yArray.Get<wbr />UpperBound<wbr />(0)); &nbsp;//5 returns 12<br />
<br />
I have muddled my way through to create this code above, and am concluding that line 3 returns type &quot;System.Object&quot;, but that I can convert it to an array, and it has length 12. &nbsp;I would really like to inspect the actual objects contained, but don't know how to use the foreach, when I don't know <br />
what object type I am working with! &nbsp;Any ideas?<br />

Hello-

I have a vendor supplied DLL that I have been using with VB6, and am now switching over to C#.
It seems like what used to be a "Variant" in VB6 now loosely translates to "System.Object" (maybe?)

object rindexTypes;  //1
System.Array myArray; //2
rindexTypes = _pfSet.get_SettingsFactorList(BarraADT.FactorTypes.aegFACTOR_RISKINDEX); //3			
myArray = (System.Array)rindexTypes; //4
System.Console.WriteLine(myArray.GetUpperBound(0));  //5 returns 12

I have muddled my way through to create this code above, and am concluding that line 3 returns type "System.Object", but that I can convert it to an array, and it has length 12.  I would really like to inspect the actual objects contained, but don't know how to use the foreach, when I don't know 
what object type I am working with!  Any ideas?


is there a way to have something tell me what type the items in the collection are?

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
