Get actual type of T in a generic List<T>

I'm looping through a PropertyInfo-List from a Class. In this class, I'm interested in the different Lists - for example List<int>, List<string>, List<Book>, aso.

But I don't know how I get the Type of the List-Objects. I just get something like

System.Collections.Generic.List`1[[System.String, mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, 
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089]].

I could take this information apart and create a Type out of this information, but I hope there's a smoother way?

Answer 1

Simple:

Type type = list.GetType().GetGenericArguments()[0];
// The first argument will be the `T` inside `List<T>`... so the list type ;)
