Creating generic variables from a type - How? Or use Activator.CreateInstance() with properties { } instead of parameters ( )?

Question

I\'m currently using Generics to make some dynamic methods, like creating an object and filling the properties with values.

Is there any way to \"dynamically\" creat

You can use the MakeGenericType method to get the generic type for a particular type argument:

var myObjListType = typeof(List<>).MakeGenericType(myObject.GetType());
var myObj = Activator.CreateInstance(myObjListType);
// MyObj will be an Object variable whose instance is a List
