(C#) Constructing Generics Through Reflection (List of Mixed Types Example) - bryanlyman

.net 2.0+ Generic classes make code size much smaller and casting objects (boxing) a cinch. However, currently there are some unsupported IDE options when trying to cast objects to and from generic objects that use mixed object types (inherited from a generic type specifier). Fear not, using reflection we can bypass the IDE and supply the users with strongly typed objects.

(C#) Generic list wrapper returns a smaller strongly typed sub-list which modifies the parent-list when changed (without events) - bryanlyman

A class which wraps a parent list containing mixed object types, to provide smaller strongly typed sub-lists of objects. These sub-lists can be modified, which then modifies the parent list concurrently (without events being triggered). Supports the merging of other lists of the same type. Supports serialization. Supports parent list auto-instantiation.
