Is there a way to declare a CollectionBase to be of a certain object type? So say I want to create a CollectionBase that accepts object type of car
Public Class carCollection
Inherits CollectionBase
In my main program, say I declare and assign a car to the collection
Dim myCarCollection As New carCollection
Dim myCar As car = New car()
myCarCollection.Add(myCar);
When I try this, Compiler tells me it disallows late binding:
myCarCollection(0).Drive()
I have to convert first so it's early bound in order to fix it:
(CType(myCarCollection(0),car).Drive()
Is there a way to just declare carCollection to be a CollectionBase of type car first, so I don't have to convert the type every time I want to make a call?
Turning option restrict off is a workaround too but I just feel like there should be a way to declare what type of object your collectionBase is going to hold.
