This is the right way:
x = ['a', 'b', 'c']
System::Array[System::String].new(x.map { |s| s.to_s.to_clr_string })
This would simplify to
x = ['a', 'b', 'c']
System::Array[System::String].new(x)
As soon as we implement implicit conversions here.

Jimmy and I have discussed a to_clr_array(type) where type defaults to Object,
but nothing like that exists yet.

I don't know if it's the easiest way, but this should work as a conversion:
x = ['a', 'b', 'c']
System::Array[System::String].new(x.map { |s| s.to_s.to_clr_string })
(Obviously, if you know that the elements are already Ruby strings, you can
omit the "to_s".)

Hi,
while trying to call some C# code from IronRuby, I get this:
my_csharp_class_instance.call(%w(some array))
:0: can't convert Array into System::String[] (TypeError)
Is there some easy way to construct an array of System::String ? Or a
conversion ?
cheers,
-- Thibaut
