https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=706881#c0 Summary: gmcs supports extension 'Add' method to be used for collection initialization syntax, differs from csc Classification: Mono Product: Mono: Compilers Version: 2.10.x Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: C# AssignedTo: michael.mil...@suse.com ReportedBy: aaron.bockover+nov...@gmail.com QAContact: mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- This may (and I hope is) a Microsoft C# compiler (csc) bug, but I have confirmed different behavior between gmcs and csc. I ran into this in production, which led to a broken build on Windows. If an object has an Add method and implements IEnumerable, the C# collection initializer syntax may be used to add items to the object via its Add method. If an object does not have an Add method, through gmcs it is possible to take advantage of collection initializer syntax by providing the Add method as an extension method. However, this is not allowed in csc. gmcs appears to resolve extension methods before it handles collection initializer syntax, whereas csc resolves extension methods later/after collection initializer syntax handling. I have no idea which compiler is wrong, but they do differ. I've tried 3.5 and 4.0 csc versions and gmcs 2.10. -- 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 - mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-bugs
