Hi All,


is there anyway i can take collection(IEnumerable) of a particular
type as a paramter for a function.
Thanks in advance.
 
do you mean to say, that you need to be sure the collection can only
be passed to the function if it's of a the type ZZZ (the one you
need) ??

well. it could be any kind of collection ..but it should only contain
the type zzz
 
I don'T really get what you're trying to accomplish.... but... if you
want to be sure that the collection is containing objects of a certain
type only, then you could make a validation at the beginning of your
function like this

Private Function getValue(byref coll as Collection) As Boolean
Dim value As Boolean = true
For Each obj As Object In coll
If Not TypeOf(obj) Is GetType(ZZZ) Then
MsgBox("Collection containing objects different from type ZZZ")
value = false
End If
Next
return value
End Function
