WCF: generic list serialized to array

Question

So I am working with WCF and my services return types that contain generic lists. WCF is currently converting these to arrays over the wire. Is there a way I configure WCF t

Answer 1

In addition, take care not to have both arrays and generics in the classes from which you serialize the instances with WCF, because you'll get a problem during deserialization : everything will be converted either to ArrayOf (if you don't change the configuration) or to Collection Type.

As result you will get errors during deserialization from the WCF code trying to assign an array where you wait a Collection and conversely.

This was just my 2cent advice from what I learned during a small project with WCF. :)
