❔ AllOf<>? Something along the same lines as discriminated unions?
That's not a bad idea, I worry about how it will work with types outside the current assembly however

That could probably work, hmm

I mean like what syntax would trigger the source generator? If I write MyClass<ITestInterface> myVariable then I can't swap out the variable type since it's already in the source

Possibly, what would the generated type names be? How would I trigger it? I don't know if a source generator works well here

I think I've established that the worst case scenario for me is using the generic method solution in the image

It will work yes but it's pretty stinky for users of the library to have to create a new class for every different kind of variable they want, as if generics don't exist Even if the only user of the library is me haha

Yeah that's what I was hoping to avoid sadly

That's why I think it's no more "cryptic" than just a regular generic, perhaps less so

I don't want it to work with types that only implement one of the types, for my case it needs to be assignable to all of the types for it to compile

The extensions you provided above satisfy the usual OneOf use case, not "AllOf" that I'm trying to create here

How so? I don't think that solves it at all?

I feel like it's a reasonable sacrifice to allow compile time enforcement of types, but I do think it's probably the case that a method like I posted in the image will suffice

I don't think it's obfuscation to require type safety at compile time

It will still work if I just make it so the generic must be a subclass of my network entity, just was hoping to be able to use interfaces as well

❔ AllOf<>? Something along the same lines as discriminated unions?
It's not a huge deal it's just inconsistent with my other API, but maybe it should be? Basically it's a networking library and I can have networked variables like int and string but I wanted a way to replicate references to the network entities themselves, so I planned on having a class that was generic in a way that you could specify the types of classes that were allowed in that property, but using just an interface breaks the serializer because it doesn't know about the network ID that exists on the network entity class

Was hoping that because properties are methods under the hood they could be defined as generic (in the IL)

I wonder of generating IL directly would support something like this, not that I'll go that route but I wonder if its a language limitation or the some other aspect

That's what I figured, unfortunate that it can't be done with a property, the example I posted in the image is probably as close I can get then
