[stringtemplate-interest] ST# - question regarding special casing of IList

[Jeremy Gray]

Following on from Kunle's recent post regarding special casing of IList,
I was wondering if Kunle or someone else could comment on why IList was
selected for special casing as a multi-valued attribute. The .net design
guidelines suggest that IList be targeted if the list is to be modified,
ICollection if they need counts of list members and/or access by index,
and IEnumerable if none of these are needed. Is there a particular
reason for ST# to target IList and/or to not target IEnumerable?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Jeremy Gray
