Generic object in C#

Question

I'm new with C#. In vb.net I can have a list of object and I can add the new one with the next lines:

Dim lObject = new list (of object)
lObject.add(new with{.id = 1, .name ="hello"})

After that I can access every row of list and every field.

Any idea how can I do that in C#? Without create a specific class

Thanxs

In c#? You could cheat with value-tuples:

var list = new List<(int id, string name)>();
list.Add((1, "hello"));

(Although technically these aren't objects until boxed, but: it'll do the job)

In reality: just declare the class that you clearly want here. It'll save you a lot of pain:

class Something {
    public int Id {get;set;}
    public string Name {get;set;}
}

and use a List<Something>
