Hi All,

I have a Helper class which is used to import from a csv file.
The import method has a DataHolder template used to implement generic way of importing...

C#

public static CsvImportState ImportFromCsv<TDataHolder>(StreamReader streamReader, out ICsvFile<TDataHolder> csvFile) where TDataHolder : DataHolderBase
       {

I was trying to keep a UI to use this import helper class

My UI will be used by different clients with different Dataholder classes..

For example in my Import button click i need to pass the out parameter

ICsvFile<TDataHolder> csvFile

But in UI how shall i create a template which is similar to TDataHolder in ImportFile helper class.

Please help me.

Thanks in Advance.

Why create another type? I would try to use the exact same TDataHolder type for sender and consumer.

Would that be possible in your situation?

You could implement the TDataHolder base class in a dll that all of the other projects (sender and consumers) hold a reference to. That way the base class should be usable everywhere you need it to.
