C# ListView to List<string>

Question

I have a ListView with string items, and i am trying to get these items and store them in List container.

I need the reverse operation of this:

List<string> myList = new List<string> { "Item1", "item2", "item3"}; 
resultsList.ItemsSource = myList;

So my Question is How to Parse ListView with Items to List?

Answer 1

I think you can cast and use ToList to create a list:

myList = resultsList.ItemsSource.Cast<string>().ToList();

Answer 2

You need to cast it to IEnumerable<string>

List<string> myList = ((IEnumerable<string>)resultsList.ItemsSource).ToList();
