swap for property

Hi,

I tried to implement the std::swap method on properties (and indexers)
without success. The problem is that list[i] calls the getter and
returns a copy and the assignment in the swap method does not call the
setter.

template <typename T>
void swap(T% a, T% b)
{ T t = a; a = b; b = a; }

void main() {
IList<intlist = gcnew List<int>(2);
list.Add(1); list.Add(2);
swap (list[0], list[1]);
}

Probably I need something like

template <typename T>
void swap(property<Ta, property<Tb)
{ T t = a.get(); a.set(b.get()); b.set(a.get()); }

How can the swap method be implemented on properties and indexers?

Thanks
Christian
