This class is a placeholder for use with generics. It helps you test generic types by letting you pass non-specific type arguments.

The GenericParameterHelper type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	GenericParameterHelper()	Initializes a new instance of the GenericParameterHelper class. This constructor initializes the Data property to a random value.
	GenericParameterHelper(Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the GenericParameterHelper class. This constructor initializes the Data property to a user specified value.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Data	Gets or sets the Data property for this instance.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Clone	Creates a new GenericParameterHelper that is a copy of the current instance.
	CompareTo	Compares the current instance with another object of the same type and returns an integer that indicates whether the current instance precedes, follows, or occurs in the same position in the sort order as the other object.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified GenericParameterHelper object is equal to the current GenericParameterHelper object. (Overrides Object.Equals(Object).)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetEnumerator	Returns an enumerator whose length is derived from the Data property.
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this GenericParameterHelper object. (Overrides Object.GetHashCode.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

A unit test might not be able to pass a real type to a generic method that it is testing. That code can pass this generic placeholder instead.

When the Team System testing tools generates a unit test for testing a generic type, the calls that test that generic type use placeholder generic type arguments.

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.
