how to convert lambda expression to object directly?

Question

I have to do through Action like this:

Action action = () => { ..// };
object o = action;

any way to do this:

object o = () =>{};  //this doesn't compile

Answer 1

What about:

object o = (Action) (() => { ... });

Though I don't really know why you'd want to store it as an object in the first place...

Answer 2

Weeeell, delegates are objects, but lambdas aren't.

This object o = (Action)(() => {}); will compile, but I don't know if it looks any better.

Answer 3

Another option, not all that different:

object o = new Action(() => { });
