When I specify multiple constraints for the same identifier, it doesn't
work nor does the compiler give an error message.
For example:
class Test
{
public static int GetIt<T>(T v) where T : System.IConvertible, T :
System.IFormattable
{
return v.ToInt32();
}
public static void Main()
{
GetIt<int>(2);
}
}
Gives the compilation error:
error CS0117: 'T' does not contain a definition for 'ToInt32'
I had really hoped that this would be possible, so if it isn't valid to
supply multiple constraints for the same type argument, read this as a
request for enhancement ;-)

Jeroen
P.S. I'd love to receive a copy of csharp.htm
