Type Parameters

  • TComEnumerator
    A COM enumerator type (e.g. IEnumString).
  • TEnumerated
    The type of the enumerator.

The EnumerableComCollection<TComEnumerator, TEnumerated> type exposes the following members.

Remarks

Classes that derive from this class change a COM-style IEnumXXX interface into a form that can be processed by a foreach statement. You must derive a separate class from this base class due to the way C# generics are defined.

This class must call methods on the COM enumerator that it wraps (Next(), Skip(), etc.), but generic types can access properties and methods only on the parameterized types that are specified in the their constraints. For example, you can call TComEnumerator.Next() only if you specify a constraint on TComEnumerator that tells the compiler that the type implements Next().

COM IEnumXXX interfaces are strongly typed. In other words, the IEnumXXX.Next() method returns an array of XXX objects. Because these interfaces do not have a common base interface, you cannot place a constraint on TComEnumerator directly. You can solve this problem by implementing the IComEnumeratorRelay<TComEnumerator, TEnumerated> interface along with the EnumerableComCollection<TComEnumerator, TEnumerated> interface. Doing so allows the generic type to call into the COM enumerator without having to place a constraint on TComEnumerator.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
