Question

I’m trying to do this:

var collection1 = new Collection<string> {"one", "two"};
var collection2 = new Collection<string> {"three", "four"};

var result = collection1.Concat(collection2);

But the result variable is type Enumerable[System.String]
, whereas I want a Collection[System.String]

I’ve tried casting:

var all = (Collection<string>) collection1.Concat(collection2);

But no joy.

Answer 1

var result = new Collection<string>(collection1.Concat(collection2).ToList());

For some reason System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection requires an IList parameter to it’s constructor. (The other collections only need an IEnumerator)
