Can the ArrayList below be initialized directly without the need for aFileExt string array?
private static string[] aFileExt =
{"css", "gif", "htm", "html", "txt", "xml" };
private System.Collections.ArrayList alFileTypes =
new System.Collections.ArrayList(aFileExt);
The line below is the goal, but my .Net Compiler does not like it:
private static System.Collections.ArrayList alFileTypes =
new System.Collections.ArrayList({"css","gif","htm","html","txt","xml"});
I am using the .net Micro Framework and thus do not have access to generic types.
C# 1 or 2:
private static ArrayList alFileTypes =
new ArrayList(new string[] {"css","gif","htm","html","txt","xml"});
C# 3 using an implicitly typed array:
private static ArrayList alFileTypes =
new ArrayList(new[] {"css","gif","htm","html","txt","xml"});
C# 3 using a collection initializer:
private static ArrayList alFileTypes =
new ArrayList{"css","gif","htm","html","txt","xml"};
Or create your own helper method:
public static ArrayList CreateList(params object[] items)
{
return new ArrayList(items);
}
then:
static ArrayList alFileTypes = CreateList("css","gif","htm","html","txt","xml");
Any reason why you're not using the generic collections, btw?
