Hi,
I just downloaded rotor and gyro and am playing a bit with generics. I
enclose a sample program. My question is, according to the language
spec ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/vcsharp/te...e/default.aspx, C#
2.0 Specification), a syntax like:
public class MathEngine<T> where T: IHasX, IHasY {
…
}
should be valid. Yet, the rotor+gyro compiler complains. I have
attempted also
public class MathEngine<T> where T: IHasX, T: IHasY {
…
}
but it seems that it only picks up the last part, namely, only IHasY.
I know rotor+gyro are kind of experimental, but still, I'd like to
make sure I am not missing out obvious explanations. Are these
problems just bugs?
Regards,
Hung Jung

Hung,
Well, you kind of explained it yourself. The Rotor/Gyro implementations
were created before the designs were confirmed for the next version of the
framework. Constraints might not have been in the original design for the
CLR when they did the Rotor/Gyro project.
I wouldn't expect the new version of the CLR/Framework to work with the
current version of Rotor/Gyro.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. I also got confirmation from someone else on the
one-constraint limitation for the Gyro generics. It is actually also
mentioned in gyro.html in the unpacked distribution files.

I've read some material on the upcoming Generics for C#. I've
seen two types of syntax used for constraints:
- direct specification of the interface in the angle brackets
- where clauses
I looked at the files in the Gyro download but I couldn't find any
mention of constraints. Can anyone enlighten me what the current
status is and what we can expect when Generics are released?
Thanks,

Let's say I have an interface (IValid) I want to add to all the
different Winform.Controls classes (textbox, radiobutton, etc). And I
have a bunch of methods that then use these IValid Controls. Sometimes
they access them as Controls, sometimes as IValids. Which means
casting back and forth. You end up with things like:

rather than

I just read a blurb in MSDN under the C++ "ref" keyword which states that:
"Under the CLR object model, only public single inheritance is supported".
Does this mean that no .NET class can ever support multiple inheritance. In
C++ for instance I noticed that the compiler flags an error if you use the
"ref" keyword on a class with multiple base classes. This supports the above
quote. However, under the "CodeClass2.Bases" property (part...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
