Anyone know a good workaround for the lack of an enum generic constraint?[cod]e...
Is is possible to limit the generic type parameter [I don't know if that's the right name] to an Enum?[code]...
I'm getting an error after sending a list to a web service.This is the code that is calling the web service:

I have a URL lets say . some time i need to send HTTP and some time i need to send it to HTTPS for that i created a enum:
Private _protocol As Protocol
Enum Protocol
HTTP
HTTPS

Now when i get value back from protocoltype it returns me integer value as enum do so tell me how to get string from enum or other substitute.
Dim targetUri As String = setting.protocolType & "://www.mysite.com"
I have the following VB.NET function, for example:

I have bee trying to figure out, how to match generic types, without the type parameter in a IF-ELSE statement - heres what i mean:

<P>End if</P>
(Not really sure if I phrased the question correctly...) I want to create a lambda expression that would take an Object, attempt to convert it to a passed-in Type, and print to the console whether it was successful or not. At a glance, the lambda expression may seem a pretty silly way to accomplish this task, but I'd really like to know what I'm doing wrong, so I can better grow my skill set.

I'd like to auto-register the common/simple services in my unity container. I think the cleanest way to do this would be via a custom atribute.I can then examine all the (abstract) classes in an assembly and register those types with unity.The piece of information I'm missing is the interface(s) that the class wants to be registered against
eg:
Public Class AutoRegisterAttribute
Public Property ForInterface As System.Type
Public Sub New(ForInterface As System.Type)

Note, I don't just want to find any class it implements as shown with IDisposableI've tried doing this using generics (generics can't inherit from Attribute), with a Type Parameter (Passing in IEngine.GetType results in a "Constant expression is required")

I have a generic class Class MyTestClass(Of T)where I know that T will only ever be an enum. Is there any way to declare this restriction to the compiler?And a second question: If the answer to my first question is 'no, there isn't', then what's the best way to cast T to a plain integer? Doing that is difficult when the compiler doesn't know that T is always an enum. [code]That certainly works, but it looks nasty as it apparently involves unnecessarily boxing and then unboxing the enum value. Is there a better way of doing it?
View 1 RepliesI don't know how to convert the following line from VB to C#:
Dim values As New List(Of T)(System.Enum.GetValues(GetType(T)))
My version doesn't work:
List<T> values = new List<T>(System.Enum.GetValues(typeof(T)));
The best overloaded method match for 'System.Collections.Generic.List.List(System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable)'
has some invalid arguments
The constructor-parameter doesn't take it that way - what cast (or else) am I missing?
For clarification: It is wrapped up within the following generic method
public static void BindToEnum<T>()
{
List<T> values = new List<T>(System.Enum.GetValues(typeof(T)));
//...
}
Consider:
Public MustInherit Class Column
Public ReadOnly Property ReturnSomethingUseful() As Object
Get
'return something useful

But this gives the following error:
Public Overrides Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Boolean'
cannot override 'Public Overridable Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Object'
because they differ by their return types.
I accept that you can't do this, but I'd like to be able to preserve the semantics of what I'm. trying to do, which is to have an untyped version that deals with Object, but a typed version in derived classes that knows about the specific type T.
I have a Generic.List(Of ImportedVehicle) - ImportedVehicle being a simple class as below.There is an enum property which is marked as public.When I serialize to XML using an XMLSerializer, the enum's value is just set to it's default value (which is NotAllocated) and doesn't actually represent the value that is set in code.[code]

I am trying to create a list of a generic type in vb.net 2.0 framework.
This is the generic type definition:

mParamName = pParamName

The compiler does not allow a "T" in the method's parameter because it's not defined, but I'm not sure how or where to define it. I thought it was okay to have a generic method definition.

I'm compiling a VB.Net 2.0 app (created in VS2008) using msbuild, and now I've added a generic return type, it's giving me the following:
Warning: Type library exporter encountered a generic type instance in a signature. Generic code may not be exported to COM.
Having just spent ages removing all of the previous warnings, I don't really want to add a new one. Any idea how to get rid of it (aside from not using generics)?I don't know what details I'd put in the attribute, or what number to put in the project-level ignore list.
