Abt Indexers

Question

Is there a limit on the number of Indexers a class can have?

The class acts as an array. There is only one class and only one this object. You can overload the indexer but you're limited to the number of types that you can use for overloading. If you need to exceed this here's my suggestion. Create an enumeration containing a list of values that represent indexers of the same type. Add a property to the class that takes the enumeration value for the desired indexer data. In the indexer use this property to determine which set of data to expose.
