I have a array list
private ArrayList rps = new ArrayList();
now below code is working fine in 2005 but not in visual studio 2008
int min = Convert.ToInt32(rps.Item(0));
int max = Convert.ToInt32(rps.Item(rps.Count - 1));
Error: System.Collections.ArrayList does not contain a definition for 'Item' and no extension method 'Item' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Collections.ArrayList' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?`
That code wouldn't work in VS 2005 either. Something similar might work in VB, but not in C#. The C# code would be:
int min = Convert.ToInt32(rps[0]);
int max = Convert.ToInt32(rps.Item[rps.Count - 1]);
However, I'd advise you to start using generic collections such as List<T> instead.
;.Use an indexer.
int min = Convert.ToInt32(rps[0]);
Also consider using List<T> instead of ArrayList.
You have a syntax error:
rps.Item(0)
Should be:
rps[0]
Note - you really shouldn't be using ArrayList - it predates generics which is what you should be using instead.
