Hello,

I am trying to retreive a channel clooection based on a custom property. I
have created an ArrayList of the channels I want and the ChannelCollection
but I am having problems returning the ArrayList as a Channel Collection.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks


public static ChannelCollection GetSubChannelsWithCustomProperty(Channel c,
string cp)
{
ChannelCollection cc = null;
ArrayList subCs = new ArrayList();

if (c!=null)
{
foreach (Channel sc in c.Channels)
{
CustomPropertyCollection cpc;
cpc = sc.CustomProperties;

if (cpc["nav"] != null)
{
string cpVal = cpc["nav"].Value.ToString().ToLower().Trim();
if (cpVal == cp)
{
subCs.Add(sc);
}
}
}
}
return (cc)subCh.ToArray(typeof(ChannelCollection));
}

Hi

The ChannelCollection class can't be cast as an ArrayList. Neither can you
add or remove items from the list programatically. You'll have to set the
return value to be an ArrayList or something else.

Ok what about the other way round. Can an ArrayList be cast as a
ChannelCollection?

Hi,

no this is not possible.
These two types are not compatible.

Cheers,
Stefan
