Bookmark or Share- How can I pass in a func with a generic type parameter?You cannot have instances of generic functions or actions - all type parameters are defined upfront and cannot be redefined by the caller. An easy way would be to avoid polymorphism altogether by relying on down-casting: public void SomeUtility(Func
converter) { var myType = (MyType)converter(typeof(MyType), "foo"); } - What's the difference between "general" and "generic"?Generic is the opposite of specific. Generic and specific refer to the identification of a fact. Specific means a fact that has been specified. If you ask for (specify) a pain reliever, aspirin would be a specific pain reliever, while aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and naproxen together would be generic pain relievers.
- Nullable type as a generic parameter possible? - Stack OverflowMultiple generic constraints can't be combined in an OR fashion (less restrictive), only in an AND fashion (more restrictive). Meaning that one method can't handle both scenarios. The generic constraints also cannot be used to make a unique signature for the method, so you'd have to use 2 separate method names.
- How do I make the return type of a method generic?This may not be a best practice but it worked for me. This method takes in an array of generic type and a value to add to the end of the array. The array is then copied with the first value stripped and the value taken into the method is added to the end of the array. The last thing is that I return the generic array.
- How to specify an integer array as generic in VHDL?You are allowed to use an array as a generic parameter however you are not allowed to declare it there, on-the-fly as an anonymous type. You have to first declare your integer array type in a separate package (which can be in the same file or in a separate one) and then use the package in your entity and when you instantiate it.
