Hi all,

I have a Web Service that returns a bindinglist of objects. However, on the
client side it comes across as an array. Is there a way in VB.Net to
typecast the array back to a bindinglist?

TIA!
 
Hi,

Yes, After serializing the BindingList will be recognized as an array.
Unfortunately, the constructor for BindingList<T> only accepts IList<T> as
parameter to initialize it. The only thing we can do is to create a new
BindingList, and use a foreach loop to add all the items to it.

If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know.
