How do I clone a generic list in C#?

Question

I have a generic list of objects in C#, and wish to clone the list. The items within the list are cloneable, but there doesn\'t seem to be an option to do list.Clone()

Answer 1

If you have already referenced Newtonsoft.Json in your project and your objects are serializeable you could always use:

List newList = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(listToCopy))

Possibly not the most efficient way to do it, but unless you're doing it 100s of 1000s of times you may not even notice the speed difference.
