[324] Type Argument Specification is Redundant

The type argument specifier in invocation is redundant if it could be
inferred from the actual parameter types.
Please refer to C# specs (ECMA-334) part "25.6.4 Inference of type
arguments"

We have the following function in our code base.

public static ReadOnlyCollection<BusinessObject>
ToBo<T>(ReadOnlyCollection<T> items) where T : BusinessObject
{
Converter<T, BusinessObject> converter =
new Converter<T, BusinessObject>(delegate(T t) { return t as
BusinessObject; });
List<T> list = new List<T>(items);
return new
ReadOnlyCollection<BusinessObject>(list.ConvertAll<BusinessObject>(converter).ToArray());
}

324 is showing me that the type argument specification is redundant in the
last line - the list.ConvertAll<BusinessObject> where <BusinessObject> is
marked as redundant.

I cannot find a List<T>.ConvertAll() that is not generic. Could someone
tell me why the type specifier is redundant, please?

Thanks

Thanks for the quick response, Eugene. I learn quite a lot of new things from using R#.......which is a nice side-benefit :)

Thanks
