Note the use of typeof() to get the type of the elements at each index of members, to generate a type on which a constructor can be called to
instantiate the elements at each index of members. Magic.

There is actually a easier way to instanciate the elements. Just do "new
T[i]();" no need for typeof.



I'm actually wrong. "new T[i]()" will not work because the compiler will think it is a array allocation. You actually have to use new typeof(member[i])();

I created a example which generates individual class members for each of the arguments bassed to GrabBagT:

AWW you posted that while I was writing my latest novel. So T[i] doesn't work? I guess I shouldn't have opened my eyes this morning. In any case, typeof() DOES work, so as long as there is a way to extract the type, we're good.

I am extremely pleased it's actually possible to get individual data members like I was originally attempting to do. I'm likely not going to actually do this, as your T members; solution is cleaner, but I'm glad it's not just arbitrarily impossible.

Thank you so much!
