How to create a multidimensional array of a certain type in runtime?

N

Norbert Pürringer

Hello,

does anyone know, if it is possible (via reflection?) to instantiate a
multidimensional array of a certain type, which is first known at run
time?

e.g. at runtime I have to create an array of type string[2,3]. The
type string is given by a variable of type Type. So the input
parameter are Type, Cols and Rows.

Any ideas how to realize it?

Thank you,
Norbert

See Array.CreateInstance(Type, int[])
