Note

The .NET Framework SDK 3.5 documentation will list indexer methods of a class or structure as a prop-

erty named 

Item

. However, the Visual Studio Object Browser will show indexers as properties defined using

expected 

this[]

syntax.

Indexers with Multiple Dimensions

It is also permissible to create an indexer method that takes multiple parameters. Assume you have

a custom collection that stores subitems in a 2D array. If this is the case, you may configure an

indexer method as follows:

public class SomeContainer

{

private int[,] my2DintArray = new int[10, 10];

public int this[int row, int column]

{

/* get or set value from 2D array */  }

}
