ASP.NET MVC api Assigning a list to a class

Question

I have a class definition like so:

[XmlRoot("Developments")]
public class DevelopmentsClass : List<Development> { }

and in my controller I have this function:

public DevelopmentsClass getFeed()
{

  DevelopmentsClass returnDevelopments = new DevelopmentsClass();
  List<Development> developments = new List<Development>();

  Development development = new Development();

  //A bunch of code assigning variables to development and then adding development to developments
  return returnDevelopments;

}

My question is, how do I assign developments to DevelopmentsClass? I had to make this change to have XmlRoot and I don't want to rewrite a bunch of code....Is there a quick way to assign developments to DevelopmentsClass?

I am banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out — user979331

This should work:

returnDevelopments.AddRange(developments);
