Declaration of Anonymous types List [duplicate]

Is there any way to declare a list object of anonymous type. I mean

List<var> someVariable = new List<var>();
someVariable.Add(
             new{Name="Krishna", 
                 Phones = new[] {"555-555-5555", "666-666-6666"}}
                );

This is because I need to create a collection at runtime.


How about dynamic?

List<dynamic> dynamicList = new List<dynamic>();


dynamicList.Add(new { Name = "Krishna",  Phones = new[] { "555-555-5555", "666-666-6666" } }); 

It involves a bit of hackery but it can be done.

static List<T> CreateListFromSingle<T>(T value) {
  var list = new List<T>();
  list.Add(value);
  return list;
}

var list = CreateListFromSingle(
   new{Name="Krishna", 
                 Phones = new[] {"555-555-5555", "666-666-6666"}}
                );
