Nested collections in VB.Net

[Andy]

Hello

I would like to recreate the same functionality as the example below


Collection1("id").Collection2("ID").Collection3("ID").SomeProperty=somevalue


I do know that all collections in this examples will have to be derived from
classes because each of these collections have different properties and methods.
But how exactly do I do that?


Yours truly

Not sure to understand. You could create a collection using CollectionBase
(or even something else that would be closer from what you need).
I don't see what specific problem could cause the this imbrication. if all
these collections have their own properties/method (I assume you want
strongly typed collections ?) you'll just have 3 different collection
classes.

G'day Andy.

Something like this would do it:

Public Class MyFirstColl
...
Public Default Property Item(Byval Identifier as String ) as AnObject
...
End Property
...
End Class

Public Class MySecondColl
...
Public Default Property Item(Byval Identifier as String) As MyFirstColl
...
'Get/Set your Instance of MyFirstColl here
...
End Property
...
End Class


etc etc

HTH,
