C# 8 interfaces: Static members
-
Static members give us the ability to run code from an interface without an instance of that interface.
I'm obviously wrong, but I thought interfaces were so that you weren't bound to an implementation?
Sorry, nothing funny/insightful there. I'm just irked at the design choice...

If you're wrong, so am I. I don't understand why you'd want to use an interface for any of that. The author even shows that you can do exactly the same thing with a class at the end of the article. I have to agree with his earlier post instead: Jeremy Bytes: Interfaces in C# 8 are a Bit of a Mess[^]

If the static methods on the interface were limited to calling other methods on the interface, and static data members limited to interfaces or simple primitives, then I might agree with this idea. But yeah, it's borked, in my opinion.

:doh: Only because you can, it doesn't mean that you should...
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Well thankfully, you can still implement interfaces the right way if you choose to...

Probably Microsoft needs it for Android or iOS. Or at least this was the case with interface default implementations.
