Question

I have an array of type object which are strings. I would like to convert them to strings. What would be the quickest way of doing so?

Eg.: I have this object[] and want to convert it so it is this string[].

UPDATE: I think the problem is that some of the objects on the object[] are actually other objects like integers. I would need to convert them to strings first. Please include that into your solution. Thanks.

Probably not the most efficient way to do it…it has the benefit of working when the objects aren’t necessarily strings.

string[] output = (from o in objectArray
                   select o.ToString()).ToArray()
