Factory class returning a generic interface in C#

Factory class returning a generic interface in C#

In C#, you can create a factory class that returns a generic interface by using a type parameter on the factory method. Here's an example:

public interface IRepository<T> { void Add(T item); T Get(int id); } public class Repository<T> : IRepository<T> { public void Add(T item) { // Implementation } public T Get(int id) { // Implementation return default(T); } } public class RepositoryFactory { public static IRepository<T> Create<T>() { return new Repository<T>(); } }

In this example, we have defined a generic interface IRepository<T> with two methods: Add and Get. We have also defined a generic class Repository<T> that implements the IRepository<T> interface.

We then define a RepositoryFactory class that contains a static factory method Create<T> that returns an instance of the Repository<T> class. The type parameter T is used to specify the type of object that the repository will handle.

To use the RepositoryFactory class, you can call the Create<T> method and pass in the desired type parameter, like this:

IRepository<string> stringRepository = RepositoryFactory.Create<string>(); IRepository<int> intRepository = RepositoryFactory.Create<int>();

In this example, we have created two repository objects: stringRepository that handles strings and intRepository that handles integers. Both repositories are created using the RepositoryFactory.Create<T> method and passing the appropriate type parameter.
