This is a basic question. What is the difference between casting and using
the Convert.ToXXX methods, from the standpoint of the compiler, in terms of
performance, and in other ways? e.g.
this.ContentID = (int)ci.Conid;
vs.
this.ContentID = Convert.ToInt32(ci.Conid);
I tend to use the latter form because it seems more descriptive to me, but
it would be good to know what's best practice. I'm guessing those methods
are more expensive computationally.
