IsNullOrEmpty generic method for Array to avoid Re-Sharper warning

I’ve used the following extension method in many places.

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty(this Object[] myArr)
{
return (myArr == null || myArr.Length == 0);
}

Recently I’ve noticed that Resharper shows warning covariant array conversion to object[] may cause an exception for the following code

ObjectsOfMyClass.IsNullOrEmpty()


I’ve resolved the issue by creating generic extension method

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty<T>(this T[] myArr)
{
return (myArr == null || myArr.Length == 0);
}

               return !source.GetEnumerator().MoveNext();
           }
