[Solved]problems with generics subclassing filtered types

[jamie]

I have this

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. TnewMapObject<Tkey, TData:TObject> =Class(TFPGMapObject<TKey,TData>)
2. ......
3. End;
4.  
5.  

This of course uses the fgl unit
what happens is <Tkey,Tdata:TObject>... makes both Tkey and TData both Tobject filtered but I only want TData to be TOBJECT specific

How to solve this ?

Generic template lists actually use semicolons as the separator (just like function parameters):

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. TNewMapObject<TKey; TData: TObject> = class(TFPGMapObject<TKey, TData>)

Apparently, that was the problem however, I did try that before and was running into problems that really had nothing to do with the filtering of the types but was affecting my attempt to correct something.

I now have a fully working TFPGMapEx and TFPGMapObjectEx that has a TMapPair for each that can be used as an enumerator for the map.

If anyone wants a copy of my generics unit file I can post is here. It piggy backs off of FGL code.


Thank You.
