all,

does anyone know the equivalent vb.net syntax for the following c# index
property accessor method:

        public foo this[int index]
        {
         get
         {
         return ((foo)this[index]);
         }
         set
         {
         foo[index] = value;
         }
         }

i tried:
    '---- index accessor
    public property me[index as integer] as Foo
        Get
            return (CType(me[index], Foo))
        End Get
        Set(ByVal Value)
            Me[index] = Value
        End Set
    End Property

but i get "Keyword is not valid as an identifier" for me

Is there even anything that would be valid in vb.net like this?

(just for context, this is for a strongly-typed collection based on the
CollectionBase class)

nevermind, figured it out. I forgot that vb.net doesn't use default
indexers like c#.... the correct code is as follows:
    '---- index accessor
    Public Overloads Property InnerList(ByVal index As Integer) As foo
        Get
            Return (CType(InnerList(index), foo))
        End Get
        Set(ByVal Value As foo)
            InnerList(index) = Value
        End Set
    End Property

ok, the problem with this method is that i can't consume it via the follwing
    object.Foos(index).property = blah
instead i have to do the following:
    object.Foos.InnerList(index).property = blah

is there any way around this in vb.net or is it a limitation??

If extending the CollectionBase class, use the DEFAULT keyword
