Create a generic IEnumerable <T> based on IEnumerable types and member elements
I get IEnumerable, which, as I know, is an array of objects. I also know the data type of the elements. Now I need to pass this to IEnumerable <T>, where T is the type supplied in the kit. For instance,
IEnumerable results = GetUsers();
Type t = GetType(); //Say this returns User
IEnumerable<T> users = ConvertToTypedIEnumerable(results, t);
Now I want to convert this to IEnumerable <User>. In addition, I want to be able to do this for any type.
I cannot use IEnumerable.Cast <> because for this I need to know the type that must be included at compile time, which I do not have. I get type and IEnumerable at runtime.
