Test for Generic Type

Useful helper method I found on StackOverflow

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace TestForGenericType
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var test = new List<string>();
            bool result = test.GetType().IsSubclassOfRawGeneric(typeof(List<>));

            // result = true
        }
    }

    static class ReflectionUtils
    {
        public static bool IsSubclassOfRawGeneric(this Type toCheck, Type baseType)
        {
            while (toCheck != typeof(object))
            {
                Type cur = toCheck.IsGenericType ? toCheck.GetGenericTypeDefinition() : toCheck;
                if (baseType == cur)
                {
                    return true;
                }

                toCheck = toCheck.BaseType;
            }
            return false;
        }
    }
}
