I'm not sure where I saw this, and I'm certainly not getting the syntax past the compiler. Is it possible to use the 'class' C# keyword as part of a method parameter signature?
foo(string x, class y) { }
Anyone else see something like this? thanks, -gene
Should you be using object maybe? It looks like you are trying to specify a parameter that can have any type, in which case you should use object, since everything derives from it.
I don't think you can use it as in your example, but if you would want to use the word "class" as a parameter name, that is doable by prefixing it with @:
foo(string @class) { }
It is possible to use the word class in in a generic method definition:
foo<T>(T object) where T:class
Use object if you want to be able to pass y as anything:
foo(string x, class y) { }
use generics if you want to state y has to be an object of a class - not a struct or an internace for example.
foo<MyType>(string x, MyType y) where MyType : class { }
object,Type, or generics - possibly a few others too.
