Type list of selected items in a wpf datagrid

Question

I send the selected items to a specific command when the selection changes (each item is a class X)

I get them as object how can I convert it to a list?

I tried:

Answer 1

The type of the SelectedItems property is the non-generic IList. You can't simply cast that to the generic IList.

You could however use LINQ to get an IEnumerable or a List.

using System.Linq;

IList list = obj as IList;
IEnumerable SelectedItemsList = list.Cast();
// or 
List SelectedItemsList = list.Cast().ToList();
