struct

[14 7/8\ x 8 1/2\]

I want to use a struct to constrain a result.

The result is a string composed of several strings of fixed length;

Let's say the string

Result is composed of 3 strings, each 4 char in length.

Can I build a struct that would enforce such a construct?

I tried putting string[] s = new string[4] in my struct but it wouldn't
let me.

Yes you can, something like the following:

struct MyResult
{
private string s1 = string.Empty;
private string s2 = string.Empty;
private string s3 = string.Empty;

public string S1
{
get
{
return s1;
}

set
{
if ( value.Length <= 3 )
s1 = value;
else
throw new InvalidOperationExcpetion();
}
}

// repeat for S2 and S3

}

[14 7/8\ x 8 1/2\]

excellent!

and then i should be able to add in the struct:

public string sAll
{
get
{
return s1 + s2 + s3;
}
}
