ambiguous/conflicting constructors in generic class

Question

I\'ve got a generic class:

public class BaseFieldValue
{
    public BaseFieldValue()
    {
        //...
    }

    public BaseFieldValue(string val         


        

Answer 1

You could do the following:

public class BaseFieldValue
{
    public struct Special
    {
        internal string m_value;
        public Special(string value)
        {
            m_value = value;
        }
    }

    public BaseFieldValue()
    {
        //...
    }

    public BaseFieldValue(Special value)
    {
        //...
    }

    public BaseFieldValue(T value)
    {
        //...
    }
}

... or, you could add an extra ignored boolean parameter to your special constructor, just to disambiguate it.
