Hi,

Is there a quick way to know if a given object implements IComparable?
(without casting or anything like that). Something that uses
reflection?

casting under the CLR uses reflection (well, type meta-data, not the
relfection API per-se), so you're tilting against windmills trying to do it
"without casting or anything like that". Just use the 'is' operator in C#
(trycast in IL).
