Question by SaintDaveUK · Jun 17, 2016 at 06:01 AM · javascriptlistsparametersarguments

How to use an implicit generic list as a parameter?

I am using JavaScript and I want to write a function that can use a generic list of any type as a parameter.

 static function ImplicitFunction(myList:List.<T>) {
     //code etc        
     return;
 }

How can I go about doing this?

I believe you'd have to in-turn make your function a generic function...

Unfortunately, JavaScript does NOT have this kind of functionality - you have to use C# if you want to use Generics.

 public static void ImplicitFunction<T>(List<T> myList) {
     // code etc
     return; //btw you dont have to return; in void functions/methods
 }

Thank you for the help, I'll try this solution out.

I was worried it would be a JS limitation. One more reason to start transitioning to C# I suppose.

Your code returns the following error:

 Assets/Standard Assets/Custom/Global.cs(16,48): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `List`1' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Any ideas on how to fix this?

$$anonymous$$ake sure you're using System.Collections.Generic; at the top of your Global.cs
