How to implement a property in an interface

In the interface, you specify the property:

public interface IResourcePolicy
{
   string Version { get; set; }
}

In the implementing class, you need to implement it:

public class ResourcePolicy : IResourcePolicy
{
   public string Version { get; set; }
}

This looks similar, but it is something completely different. In the interface, there is no code. You just specify that there is a property with a getter and a setter, whatever they will do.

In the class, you actually implement them. The shortest way to do this is using this { get; set; } syntax. The compiler will create a field and generate the getter and setter implementation for it.


You mean like this?

class MyResourcePolicy : IResourcePolicy {
    private string version;

    public string Version {
        get {
            return this.version;
        }
        set {
            this.version = value;
        }
    }
}
