wcf服务引用-List<T> to T[]

在wcf服务端定义了一个返回List<string>的方法，然后客户端引用服务，方法返回值确变成了string[]，返回值为什么会改变呢？

经Google查询后，The reason is that WCF serializes Generic lists as arrays to send across the wire。

为了使客户端的返回值变为List<string>,可以specify that you want to use a generic list instead of an array by clicking the advanced button when you add a reference, or you can right click on the service reference and choose configure to change it in place.
