It might be helpful to explain why you can't use generics. I mean,
what's wrong with the indexer of List<T> ?
If you can't use generics, you can do:
public interface IFileCollection
{
object this [int index] {get; set;}
}
then in FileCollection<T> :
public FileCollection<T> : List<T>, IFileCollection
{
//..
// implement IFileCollection explicitly
object IFileCollection.this[int index]
{
get
{
return this[index];
}
set
{
this[index] = (T)value;
}
}
}
