How do you provide a default type for generics?

Question

I have a class that currently has several methods that take integer parameters. These integers map to operations that the application can perform. I\'d like to make the clas

Answer 1

The compiler can infer the type arguments on methods most of the time based on the type of the arguments passed:

public void DoSomething(T test) {
}

can be called with

DoSomething(4);                   // = DoSomething(4);
DoSomething(MyEnum.SomeValue);    // = DoSomething(MyEnum.SomeValue);

By the way, you can have non-generic overloads of a generic method too.
