> It would be great to have custom generics support. (Like existing set<>
> list<>)
> Generics probably should exist only in definition & compilation time. For
> example:
> {code:c#}
> // definiton
> struct PagedList<T>
> {
> 1: list<T> Collection
> 2: i32 PageSize
> 3: i64 PageNumber
> 4: i64 TotalCount
> }
> struct Nullable<T>
> {
> 1: T Value
> }
> // usage
> enum SomeTypes
> {
> Type1 = 1
> Type2 = 2
> }
> struct Data
> {
> 1: string Name
> 2: i32 Age
> 3: string Blabla
> }
> service AService
> {
> PagedList<Nullable<SomeTypes>> GetPagedTypes (1: i64 pageNumber, 2: i32
> pageSize) // etc
> PagedList<Data> GetPagedData(1: i64 pageNumber, 2: i32 pageSize)
> }
> {code}
> that would generate generic types where it is possible, and types like
> PagedListData (or DataPagedList etc) in case if there is no generics support.
> Right now it's required to define those PagedListData manually, which is
> annoying and requires some extra effort.
> What do you think?
