✅ string.Join returns System.Int32[]

In my constructor I am getting T desiredValue. In this case T is int[]. When debugging the below code:

string desiredValue;
if (typeof(T) == typeof(int[]))
{
    format = "{0} = [{1}]\n";
    desiredValue = string.Join(", ", this.desiredValue);
}

string desiredValue;
if (typeof(T) == typeof(int[]))
{
    format = "{0} = [{1}]\n";
    desiredValue = string.Join(", ", this.desiredValue);
}

I end up getting System.Int32[] any idea why?

Maybe has something to do with desiredValue being a string..?

SebastianOP•3y ago

I have another member variable called desiredValue that is of type T. It's weird convention I have to follow :/

Angius•3y ago

Ah, yeah, desiredValue is probably that System.Int32[] string And joining a single string... results in a single string

renamed the string desiredValue to newValue to avoid confusion

Huh Somewhere, desiredValue gets, somehow, turned into a string

Let me post the whole class.

        string pattern = propertyName + " = .*?\\n";

        Type compress = Assembly.LoadFrom(assemblyName + ".Platform.dll").GetType(assemblyName + ".Compress");
        object comCal = Activator.CreateInstance(compress, null);

        var compressCalibrationData = (string)hiContext.SoundProgram.Blackboard.Properties[Directionality.CalibrationData.PropertyName].Value;
        var calibrationData = (string)compress.GetMethod("DecompressString").Invoke(comCal, new object[] { compressCalibrationData });

        string format = "{0} = {1}\n";

Should I just hard cast then? newValue = string.Join(", ", (int[])this.desiredValue);

But I am already checking if typeof(T) == typeof(int[]) So in that case it should be fine? Okay, thank you very much 🙂
