Hi.

I need to map an object which behaves like an array, (i.e. - has an indexer), and that the property that exposes this object is a getter only (so - you can update items in the array, but you can't replace the entire object that is the array with another object).

I just can't find how to do such a thing and even if such a thing possible.

Any ideas or hints?

Thanks,
Itai.

You can use an access strategy that uses the field. Have a look at the docs:

For external access you can define a getter and an indexer.

Thanks. I was using the 'nosetter.pascalcase-m-underscore' strategy, and it seems to be accepting it.

However I used an array element, which I now understand wasn't the best choice...
