IronRuby Hash to C# Dictionary

Question

How to convert Ruby Hash to C# Dictionary?

Do we have any built-in function...or something?

Answer 1

The .Net Dictionary type is a generic type which need special treatment in Ironruby. By my knowledge you cannot cast a hash to a dictionary in ironruby. But it should not be hard to write a helper function that does the conversion for you. You may even open up the hash class in ruby and include the helper inside the hash so you can return a dictionary.

See the link below how this is done in C#.
