Oct 16, 2008 · Multiple generic constraints can't be combined in an OR fashion (less restrictive), only in an AND fashion (more restrictive). Meaning that one method can't handle both …

Sep 6, 2013 · Generic Constraints. Generic constraints help the compiler give you more from your T. An unconstrained generic can only be proven to be object, so you only get access to object …

What this means is that when an interface is contravariant (in), then the interface can be implicitly converted to a generic type when the type parameter inherits T. Conversely for covariance out, …

Jan 27, 2010 · I am trying to combine a bunch of similar methods into a generic method. I have several methods that return the value of a querystring, or null if that querystring does not exist …

Apr 11, 2017 · Generic constraints in .NET are severely lacking, and do not support most scenarios. However I consider this to be a better solution for run-time checking. It can be …
