Convert src to object of type targetType recursively

Convert src to object of type targetType recursively, but it only converts List to array. If targetType is array type and src is List, new array is created with the size of src and for each element of src, this method will be called recursively with the component type of targetType and the element of src. The returned object is assigned to newly created array. If either targetType is not array or src is not List, simply returns src.

Parameters:

targetType - The target type

src - The src object

Returns:

The converted object
