# T4GenericsExample

This example shows how to generate multiple generic interface implementations using [T4 text templates](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/modeling/code-generation-and-t4-text-templates) implemented by [Mono/T4](https://github.com/mono/t4).

There is the `IGeneric` interface.

T4 is used to generate specific implementations of this interface for `UInt64`, `UInt32`, `UInt16` and `Byte` types.

All implementations share single base template `GenericClass.ttinclude` logic.

It is possible to achieve the same result using [C++/CLI template and .NET Framework 4.7.2](https://github.com/Konard/CppGenericsExample). But this approach works only for Windows while support for C++/CLI is not crossplatform.

## Setup

Requires .NET Core 2.2 SDK and Runtime.
