I haven't been in any debugger meeting or discussion, but I can summarize the required feature set for generics in one short sentence: "whatever you can do with regular classes, you must be able to do it with instantiated generic classes". It's so obvious it hurts. That's what users expect from a sane debugger. If support for inspecting properties and calling methods on instantiated generic types was explicitely excluded from the planned feature set, that decision must be reconsidered. If it was not explicitly excluded and you assumed it was, you were mistaken, and we are in serious trouble. If it is a bug and you are too busy to fix it, please say so. In any of those cases this bug report can't be closed until there is a solution. BTW, I found something interesting: (mdb) p s.Run () ERROR: Type `Test.SomeGeneric`1<int>' has no member `Run' (mdb) p s.ToString () (string) "Test.SomeGeneric`1[System.Int32]" (mdb) p s.Run () Done (int) 1 (mdb) So the call to ToString() works, and after that any call to any method of the generic class will work. So it looks like some kind of initialization issue to me. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ mono-bugs maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-bugs
