A Brief Word Regarding Nested Delegates

I’ll wrap up this chapter by covering one final aspect regarding generic delegates. As you know, delegates may be nested within a class type to denote a tight association between the two reference types. If the nesting type is a generic, the nested delegate may leverage any type parameters in its definition:

// Nested generic delegates may access
// the type parameters of the nesting generic type.
public class MyList<T>
{
   private List<T> listOfData = new List<T>();
   public delegate void ListDelegate(T arg);
}
