System.Collections.Generic Output Issue

MIB · #1 (**permalink**) June 23rd, 2011, 07:34 AM

Dear All
I created FirstClass.py as below:

Code:

class Employee:
    FirstName = ''
    LastName = ''
    Age = 0

Then I created another file TestFirstClass.py as below:

Code:

import sys
sys.path.append('C:\\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v4.0.30319')
import clr
import System
import System.Collections.Generic
from FirstClass import Employee
list = System.Collections.Generic.List[type(Employee)]()
g1 = Employee
g1.FirstName = 'A'
g1.LastName = 'B'
g1.Age = 35
list.Add(g1)
g2 = Employee
g2.FirstName = 'C'
g2.LastName = 'D'
g2.Age = 5
list.Add(g2)
for s in list:
    print s.FirstName, s.Age

But the result it shows:
C 5
C 5
It should be
A 35
C 5
Does anyone know what is wrong??
Thank You

Is this one of the examples from the book? If so, I'm not seeing it. I highly recommend downloading the book's source code from http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTit...-DOWNLOAD.html, rather than attempting to type the code in yourself. Using the downloaded code eliminates the risk of typos and will make your learning experience far easier

. Please let me know if this answers your question. I'll be more than happy to help in whatever way I can.
