I've found a limitation when it comes to use extension methods with using static
.
Check the following code snippet:
// file: A.cs
namespace Test.A
{
public static class Extensions
{
public static int sum(this int source, int number) => source + number;
}
}
// file: Program.cs
using static Test.A.Extensions;
namespace Test
{
public class Program
{
public void Main()
{
sum(0, 10);
}
}
}
sum(0, 10)
won't work even when it has been imported with using static
: the compiler says that sum
doesn't exist in the whole context.
Is there any workaround for this as of C# 7.1 which may not involve a non-extension method overload to sum
?
