Backport of #121249 to release/10.0
/cc @tarekgh
Customer Impact
Applications that use an empty array configuration such as
"IEnumerableProperty": []and bind it to an uninitialized property of typeIEnumerable<T>,IReadOnlyList<T>, orIReadOnlyCollection<T>will encounter anArgumentNullException. This exception can cause the application to crash if it isn’t properly handled. The issue is reported by the issue #121249Regression
The regression was introduced in .NET 10 Preview 7 through PR #116677.
Testing
Tested all potential failure cases manually and ensured no exceptions are thrown. Also added a regression test for the previously failing scenario.
Risk
Low, as the fix was scoped to only affect the specific failing scenario, when an empty list configuration is bound to a property of the specified type.
