In C#, is there a way to write custom object initializers for new data-types?

Question

In C#, there\'s the \"standard\" initializer technique { Property1 = \"a\", Property2 = \"b\" }, and there are a couple of special variants for collections (list and dictionary)

Answer 1

If you implement the ICollection IEnumerable interface and have a method called add. Incidentally, this is all included in the ICollection interface which is why I confused it.

Test test = new Test() {
    new Test2() {
        new Test3() {

        }
    },
    new Test() {
        new Test2() {
            { new Test(), new Test2() },
            { new Test(), new Test2() },
            { new Test(), new Test2() }
        }
    }
};

public class Test : IEnumerable
{
    public void Add(Test a){}
    public void Add(Test2 a){}
    public IEnumerator GetEnumerator(){}
}

public class Test2 : IEnumerable
{
    public void Add(Test a, Test2 b){}
    public void Add(Test3 a){}
    public IEnumerator GetEnumerator(){}
}

public class Test3 : IEnumerable
{
    public void Add(Test a) {}
    public void Add(Test2 a){}
    public IEnumerator GetEnumerator(){}
}
