public interface myPlug
{
	void Initialize(test.IHost host);
	readonly string Name();
	void Go(object[] objs);
}

if I understand correctly want you really want is a read only property in your interface. . .

 

public interface myPlug
{
	void Initialize(test.IHost host);
	string Name { get{} };
	void Go(object[] objs);
}

yes that will work. . .

 

but the convention for Name is a property. . .

 

 

I mean you dont execute

 

string s = myObj.Name();

 

do you?

 

usually it is

 

string s = myObj.Name;

 

just a matter of style

[bpayne111]

yes i think you are right... i will probably change it

 

thanks

joe i was not allowed to create a readonly property this way for Name.

there has to be a way to do it... arrrg

 

thanks

Did you get a particular error when trying that? The code looks okay....

[bpayne111]

it wont' allow the semicolon... if i remove that, well it obviously doesn't work in my interface

 

... what's the deal?

 

thanks for the help

The proper code is as follows:

 

[b][size=2][color=#0000ff]public [/b][/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]interface [/color][/size][size=2][color=#000000]myPlug[/color]
