I have a list of files that I am adding a date stamp to each file when it loops. Now I have successfully looped through each file and i want to pass a list of file names as a parameter to another function.

Looping through each file

List<string> filenames = new List<string>();
            foreach (var xx in resultCollection)
            {
                if(xx != null)
                {
                    filenames.Add(xx.MetaData.AccountNumber +"-"+ DateTime.Now);
                }
                
            }

What I have tried:

Now I want to pass the list object as a parameter to this below

<pre>string documentPath = documentProvider(message,List<string> filenames);

I want to pass filenames. How can I do that?

Your documentProvider method will need to be like

private string documentProvider (string message, List<string> filenames)
{
    // I am assuming message is a string, change the type as required
    // code here
}

call the function like

string documentPath = documentProvider(message, filenames);

Simple: just declare the method appropriately:

C#

string documentProvider(ProbablyAStringButIDontKnowForSure message, List<string> filenames
   {
   ...
   }

Or

C#

string documentProvider(ProbablyAStringButIDontKnowForSure message, IEnumerable<string> filenames
   {
   ...
   }

And then call it:

C#

List<string> filenames = new List<string>();
...
string result = documentProvider(myMessage, filenames);
