Question

How should i implement, in C#, a class containing a property with the type of something and then that something example :

public class MyObject{     public someEnum e { get; set;}     public Object ObjectDependentOnE { get; set; } } 

I want to be able to return the right type for my object which depends on my enum. for example if e = 1, my object is of type T1…

or maybe I trying to do somethng wrong

any idea?

I am unsure of what you are really trying to do, but it appears that generics is what you are looking for:

public class MyObject<T> {    public T SomeProperty{get;set;} } 

You can constraint T to classes that implement a given interface.

Usage would be:

MyObject<SomethingClass> something = new MyObject<SomethingClass>;
