Converting from IEnumerable to List

I want to convert from IEnumerable<Contact> to List<Contact>. How can I do this?

Solution

  • You can do this very simply using LINQ.

    Make sure this using is at the top of your C# file:

    using System.Linq;

    Then use the ToList extension method.

    Example:

    IEnumerable<int> enumerable = Enumerable.Range(1, 300);
List<int> asList = enumerable.ToList();
