Sorry man, you went out to left field and away from the topic at hand. Thanks for your help anyway.

Ok, I apologize again. Just having a frustrating day. I think I follow what you were trying to explain. I've also watched the webcast from Juval Lowy. What I was trying to explain in my previous post is that I got my function (not a method) to return a generic list of an interface that all my classes implement. What I don't quite understand is how I use this list in the referencing call if I'm expecting a List of of a specific type that implements that interface. Basically it looks to me like I have to iterate throuh the list and cast each object to my desired type in order to get the intelisense etc. Are you saying that I should have my function call look like this based on my last example? If so this won't compile because I get the following error on each result.Add()

Error 1 The best overloaded method match for 'System.Collections.Generic.List<t>.Add(T)' has some invalid arguments C:\Projects\ConsoleApplication1\ConsoleApplication1\Program.cs 95 17 ConsoleApplication1
Error 2 Argument '1': cannot convert from 'ConsoleApplication1.A' to 'T' C:\Projects\ConsoleApplication1\ConsoleApplication1\Program.cs 95 28 ConsoleApplication1

public static List<t> GetList<t>() where T : A,iClass
{
List<t> result = new List<t>();
iClass oC = null;
if (typeof(T) == typeof(A))
{
oC = new A();
((A)oC).Full_Name = "A_Tom";
result.Add((A)oC);

oC = new A();
((A)oC).Full_Name = "A_Bill";
result.Add((A)oC);

oC = new A();
((A)oC).Full_Name = "A_Jack";
result.Add((A)oC);

}
else if (typeof(T) == typeof(B))
{
oC = new B();

result.Add((B)oC);

oC = new B();

result.Add((B)oC);
}
return result;
}

You are still having to cast classes A and B though???? Confused | :confused:

Here's my thing that I don't understand about what you presented earlier, you say to use the Initialise method of the Interface on each individual Derrived class to initilise that instance. My problem with this sample is that you're using an array of type object[] which in itself will do implicit cast on each item thus degrading performance. Secondly you're example of

//Or even call an initialise method on the object itself.
item.Initialise(source.P1, source.P2, "P3");
}

tells me that you will need to write an Initialisation override on each generation of the object, in this case to be able to handle "P3". I guess if it's a virtual you could call base.Initialise and pass it the same params. WOuld that be way to go?

I got it, I got it, I got it.........Again! I found an elegant solution I think. A light bulb is starting shine!!!! Tell what you think about this solution. THis will allow me to use a static function. WOuld it be better to use an instance virtual function and have each derrived instance call the base.function instead?:

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
B objB = new B();
List<iclass> oBList = new List<iclass>();
List oList = A.GetList();
}
}

public interface iClass
{
string Full_Name
{
get;
set;
}
string Short_Name
{
get;
set;
}
}

public class A : iClass
{
public A()
{
}
private string _PhoneA = "";
private string _Full_Name = "";
private string _Short_Name = "";
public string PhoneA
{
get { return _PhoneA; }
set { _PhoneA = value; }
}

public static List<t> GetList<t>() where T : iClass, new()
{
T obj = new T();
List<t> result = new List<t>();
obj.Full_Name = "Susan";
obj.Short_Name = "Su";

if (typeof(T) == typeof(A))
{

(obj as A).PhoneA = "444-4444";
result.Add(obj);
}
else if (typeof(T) == typeof(B))
{
(obj as B).SSN = "123-12-1111";
result.Add(obj);
}
return result;

}

public string Full_Name
{
get { return _Full_Name; }
set { _Full_Name = value; }
}
public string Short_Name
{
get { return _Short_Name; }
set { _Short_Name = value; }
}

}

public class B : A, iClass
{
private string _SSN = "";
public string SSN
{
get { return _SSN; }
set { _SSN = value; }
}
}

}

It works both ways!!! Generics is incredible!! It changes the whole game.

}
public static void DoSomethingtoObject(iClass obj)
{

else if (typeof(T) == typeof(B))
{

}

Don't cross post in multiple forums. It's considered very rude to "spam" the forums and makes it quite difficult for multiple people to collaborate on an answer.

Would you care to tell us what the error message is?? Or should we just guess at the 1,000 or so possible causes for failure...

I suspect that it's a PEBKAC failure.

I had to Google that one! Laugh | :laugh:

I normally call it a short between the keyboard and ground.

Hi,

I am having the handle to a combo box's dropdown list control which i have grabed by subclassing and overriding the "WNDProc" to receive window message. is there any way by which i can know what is the real object behind this handle.So if it is list control can i assign it to a .Net list control and start using that list control in .Net. i tried control.FromHandle.. Listbox.Fromhandle and and some methods inside the marshal class in .Net

so can you please help me getting the real control behind this handle
