Limited IList<> implementation ?
- by Wam
Hello people,
I'm doing some work with stats, and want to refactor the following method :
public static blah(float[] array)
{
//Do something over array, sum it for example.
}
However, instead of using float[] I'd like to be using some kind of indexed enumerable (to use dynamic loading from disk for very large arrays for example).
I had created a simple interface, and wanted to use it.
public interface IArray<T> : IEnumerable<T>
{
T this[int j] { get; set; }
int Length { get; }
}
My problem is :
float[] only inherits IList, not IArray, and AFAIK there's no way to change that.
I'd like to ditch IArray and only use IList, but my classes would need to implement many methods like Add, RemoveAt although they are fixed size
And then my question : how can float[] implement IList whereas it doesn't have these methods ?
Any help is welcome.
Cheers
