(This is not about modularity between assemblies but about modularity between simple C# classes/objects)

My application (C#) can be divided into following parts:
  • components (display results and stuff)
  • worker classes that do some work (other thread than any form or component)
  • main form (agent between components and worker classes using events and delegates)

components and worker classes don't have any using dependencies to any other namespace or class except the ones from the Framework.

Now I can't use Framework types anymore. I need custom classes. How do I share my custom types between those parts of the application without breaking up the modularity ? What are the common techniques ?
Edit:
  • I'm trying to use simple types like int, float, string, Point, PointF and arrays of all of them. But now I need to add time stamps, quality values, ...
  • can't convert them because the data handled by the components is big and good performance is a must-have

  • At some level or other you have to use framework types (string,int,byte,double) - so what Framework types are you trying to remove references to? – Martin Ernst Jul 25 '13 at 09:27

    "Now I can't use Framework types anymore. I need custom classes.". Why is that? – Steven Jul 25 '13 at 09:43
  • I still don't get it. Why do those framework types are in the way of good performance? – Steven Jul 25 '13 at 09:55
  • @Steven Because they are not. No one said that. – Bitterblue Jul 25 '13 at 09:59
  • "How do I share my custom types between those parts of the application" : what are these types for ? Between which parts ? In what direction ? Sharing implies a source and consumers - what would they be ? – guillaume31 Jul 25 '13 at 13:12
