Hi,

 

im missing the List(T)-Class from the .Net Framework. Is there a way to get it to the Microframework? I know, it saves code and ram without it. But i need it and my planed application is small.

 

Can anyone help me with that?

 

I need it for the netduino plus with NetMF 4.2

 

mfg & thx

Hey GFC,

 

you can use System.Collections.ArrayList, for example. Generics are not supported by the Microframework afaik. So if you do not want to cast a lot you can either use an array or subclass a collection class such as the above mentioned ArrayList.

 

Hope this helps,

Robert

As enough said Generics are not supported by the microframework. 

That said you can create object arrays  and similar and 90% of what you could do in .net 1.0 you can do in netmf, so lack of genrics shouldnt be to much of a problem.  Generally if you need some of the higher level features of .net for your project to work you are working at to high level for netmf, try getting closer to the metal and looking at how those features are really used in your application.  It may mean a lot more casts than you are used to in standard .net but it is doable.
