Hi All,

Im using managed c++ syntax (VS 7) in VS 2005. And i want to implement
a generic interface in it.
But im getting errors when i try to compile the code.

Here is what i want to do:-
Like if you have following in C#:-

public interface IFace<T>
{
void FuncA(T obj);
}

Then how to write it in managed c++.
I tried with this:-

generic<typename T>
public __gc__interface IFace
{
public:
void FuncA(T obj);
}



But im getting the following error:-

error c2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'

So, please let me know what is the issue here?

Im assuming that we can implement generic interface in managed C++,
since i have also used generic collections in the project as
well....or my assumption is wrong?

Thanks,
Saad

3 things:
1. I think for the 'old' syntax, you might need to use 'template', not
'generic'.
2. You need a space between "__gc" and "__interface".
3. You need a semi-colon to close the type.
