'is' versus try cast with null check

Question

I noticed that Resharper suggests that I turn this:

if (myObj.myProp is MyType)
{
   ...
}

into this:

var myObjRef = myObj.         


        

Answer 1

The best option is use pattern matching like that:

if (value is MyType casted){
    //Code with casted as MyType
    //value is still the same
}
//Note: casted can be used outside (after) the 'if' scope, too
