Hi,
Am I right that indexed properties are implemented in VB
..NET, but NOT in C#. It seems that for C# you have to wrap
the property in a separate class, for emulating index
properties.
In addition in VB .NET you can use indexed property, but
with only an integer as indexer. So, a string as indexer (as
in VB6) will not work here. Is that right ?
Some help would be nice.
Thanks.
K. 2 5688 Am I right that indexed properties are implemented in VB .NET, but NOT in C#. It seems that for C# you have to wrap the property in a separate class, for emulating index properties.
You have indexers in on classes in C#.
The following snippet shows how to implement an numeric index on a class:
class ClassWithIndexe r {
private string[] data = new string[5];
public string this [int index] {
get {
return data[index];
}
set {
data[index] = value;
}
}
}
In addition in VB .NET you can use indexed property, but with only an integer as indexer. So, a string as indexer (as in VB6) will not work here. Is that right ?
The following snippet shows how to hide a hashtable behind an indexed
property in VB.NET.
Public Class ClassWithIndexe dProperty
Private m_data As New Hashtable
Public Property Data(ByVal key As String) As String
Get
Return CStr(m_data(key ))
End Get
Set
m_data(key)=Val ue
End Set
End Property
End Class

In other words Yes you are right, C# does NOT support indexed properties.
You have to wrap your property/array in a new class and use an Indexer in the
class.
I'm in the same boat, I wanted to have several indexed properties in my
class, but decided to just expose the arrays publicly rather then spend an
extra week creating all the classes needed. Rather big flaw in the design if
you ask me, (but then it's a new product really so I'm suprised it actually
works) This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hi,
I'm using indexed properties in an object which acts as the binding source.
How can I implement INotifyPropertyChanged for that object so that when the
indexed property is updated, binding target is updated?
To be more specific please find the code below..

I'm using Reflection to iterate over the properties and fields of an
arbitrary object. For non-indexed properties it's
pi.GetValue(theObject, Nothing) for VB, or pi.GetValue(theObject, null)
for C#
For indexed properties, instead of Nothing (null) you pass an array of index
values.
OK, no problem so far.
