Question

My problem is as follows:

public abstract class A {}

public class B : A {
    public static IList<B> MyMethod(){ return new List<B>();}
}

public delegate IList<T> MyDelegate<T>() where T : A;



...

public static void CalledMethod<T>() where T : A{
    MyDelegate<T> del = B.MyMethod;  // This doesn't work
}

Can anyone explain the best way to get this to work?

Thanks for any help.

edited to fix example.

Answer 1

Here’s why this will not work

public class C: A {}

CalledMethod<C>();

This means that del will be of type MyDelegate<C> which does not work with B.MyMethod because C is not a B.
