Generics refers to a technique of writing code for a class
without specifying the data type that the class works with.
First we should now why we required generic
Earlier in C# 1.1 we have object programming and there
we can create object and in case of typesafe and performace we were
creating another classes.
In generic basically we are defining the datatype.
Let say.
class Generic
{
T[] itemsType;
public static string Name ="test";
}
}
Calling the generic function
String nameValue = "";
nameValue = Generic<string>.Name;
Simple generic program:-
Create a class below
class Address {
public int SrNo { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public
Address(int srNoInput, string
NameInput)
{
this.SrNo
= srNoInput;
this.Name
= NameInput;
}
}
Use this class through generic functionality
List<Address> Addresslist = new
List<Address>();
Addresslist.Add( new Address(1,"Fist"));
Addresslist.Add( new Address(2,"Second"));
Addresslist.Add( new Address(3,"Third"));
foreach(
Address Add in
Addresslist)
{
Console.WriteLine("Address Number:- " +
Add.SrNo);
Console.WriteLine("Address Name r:- " + Add.Name);
}
