cast object with a Type variable

Question

The following doesn\'t work, of course. Is there a possible way, which is pretty similar like this?

Type newObjectType = typeof(MyClass);

var newObject = gi         


        

Answer 1

Maybe you can solve this using generics.

public void CastToMyType(object givenObject) where T : class
{
   var newObject = givenObject as T;
}
