            <title>[CSHARP-209] Implicit conversion of IEnumerable to BsonArray requested</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/CSHARP-209</link>
                <project id="10041" key="CSHARP">C# Driver</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;It would be nice if an implicit conversion from IEnumerable to BsonArray existed so we could write code like this:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;var values = new int[] &lt;/p&gt;
{ 1, 2, 3 }
&lt;p&gt;;&lt;br/&gt;
var document = new BsonDocument(&quot;array&quot;, values);&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;instead of:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;var document = new BsonDocument(&quot;array&quot;, new BsonArray(values));&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;NOTE: make sure this implicit conversion doesn&apos;t have any undesirable side effects before implementing this request&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="29545" author="rstam" created="Sat, 23 Apr 2011 16:42:18 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;Since the C# language doesn&apos;t permit defining implicit conversion to or from interfaces this feature is not implementable. Other options (such as adding many new overloads of BsonDocument constructors and Add methods) are also not desirable.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One way in which the call to the BsonArray constructor can be avoided is by coding:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;var values = new BsonArray &lt;/p&gt;
{ 1, 2, 3 }
&lt;p&gt;; // instead of int[]&lt;br/&gt;
var document = new BsonDocument(&quot;array&quot;, values);&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Otherwise a simple call to the BsonArray constructor is not that bad!&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="29529" author="rstam" created="Fri, 22 Apr 2011 22:20:03 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;This might not be possible. Defining an implicit conversion from IEnumerable&amp;lt;int&amp;gt; to BsonArray results in a compiler error:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;error CS0552: &apos;MongoDB.Bson.BsonArray.implicit operator MongoDB.Bson.BsonArray(System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable&amp;lt;int&amp;gt;)&apos;: user-defined conversions to or from an interface are not allowed&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
