Wanted: Help implementing IEnumerable

[Siegfried Heintze]

Can someone help me implement a singly linked list class as a exercise? I'm
getting the following syntax error:

Error 1 'SinglyLinkedListNode<T>.IEnumerable<...>.GetEnumerator()':
containing type does not implement interface
'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>' F:\SinglyLinkedList.cs 17 24
InQLinkedList

I've been google searching and I have found others with this same error. In
fact, that is where I got these troublesome lines of code. But the solution
that works for them does not work for me!

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Siegfried
P.S. Scrolll way down to find my version information.

Here is my attempt:
class SinglyLinkedListNode<T> //:IEnumerable<T>

{

public IEnumerator<T> GetEnumerator() { SinglyLinkedListNode<T> list = this;
while (list != null) { yield return list.data; list = list.next; } }

IEnumerator<T> IEnumerable<T>.GetEnumerator() { return GetEnumerator(); }

//IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator() { return GetEnumerator(); }

private T data;

private SinglyLinkedListNode<T> next;


public SinglyLinkedListNode(T data) { this.data = data; next = null; }

public SinglyLinkedListNode(T data, SinglyLinkedListNode<T> tail) {
this.data = data; next = tail; }

}

Can someone help me implement a singly linked list class as a exercise? I'm
getting the following syntax error:

Error 1 'SinglyLinkedListNode<T>.IEnumerable<...>.GetEnumerator()':
containing type does not implement interface
'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>' F:\SinglyLinkedList.cs 17 24
InQLinkedList

I've been google searching and I have found others with this same error. In
fact, that is where I got these troublesome lines of code. But the solution
that works for them does not work for me!

What am I doing wrong?

I would say that the most obvious problem is that you have implemented
"IEnumerator<T> GetEnumerator()" twice, and "IEnumerator
GetEnumerator()" not at all.

The question sounds suspiciously like a homework assignment, and really
if so you should just ask your teacher. But not having actually tested
this by trying to compile your code, I believe that if you simply change
your second GetEnumerator() method to be declared as "IEnumerator
IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()", it will work.

No, this is an exercise I made up for myself. I'm an IT professional that
has been doing java for while.

When I use your suggestion, I get this error:

Error 1 Using the generic type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerator<T>'
requires '1' type arguments SinglyLinkedList.cs 20 9 LinkedList

Incidently, this example does not compile for me either. I get the same
errors as above (which is why I included the version info).

Sounds like you are missing a fully-qualified type name or "using"
directive. The compiler thinks when you write "IEnumerator" you're
referring to the generic type.

Either change the type name so that it's fully qualified —
"System.Collections.IEnumerator" — or add a "using System.Collections;"
to the file.

The example should compile fine if you copy it verbatim. It has the
necessary "using" directives.
