Why not the more generic object[] for paramValues?
> parameters[i] = Convert.ChangeType(paramValues[i],
You could use something like the ChangeType helper from
WilsonORMapper's QueryHelper to insure that more things convert
safely... here's a version of that method:
static public object ChangeType(object value, Type type) {
if (value == null && type.IsGenericType) return
Activator.CreateInstance(type);
if (value == null) return null;
if (type == value.GetType()) return value;
if (type.IsEnum) {
if (value is string)
return Enum.Parse (type, value as string);
else
return Enum.ToObject(type, value);
}
if (!type.IsInterface && type.IsGenericType) {
Type innerType = type.GetGenericArguments()[0];
object innerValue = QueryHelper.ChangeType(value,
innerType);
return Activator.CreateInstance(type, new object[] {
innerValue });
}
if (value is string && type == typeof(Guid)) return new
Guid(value as string);
if (value is string && type == typeof(Version)) return new
Version(value as string);
if (!(value is IConvertible)) return value;
return Convert.ChangeType(value, type);
}
