Edit Question
Title
Body
Simple question, hopefully a simple answer: I'd like to do the following: private DateTime m_internalDateTime; public var DateTimeProperty { get { return m_internalDateTime.ToString(); } // Return a string set { m_internalDateTime = value; } // here value is of type DateTime } The above is just an example of what I'm trying to do. I'd like to have a public accessor to an internal variable of type x. I want the get that variable as a string, but set it using something of type x. Is this possible? --edit-- I just realized I could do something like: private DateTime m_internalDateTime; public object DateTimeProperty { get { return m_internalDateTime.ToString(); } // Return a string set { m_internalDateTime = (DateTime)value; } // here value is of type DateTime } But then, let say I use type y instead of a "string" as my 'get' type. If I want to use "DateTimeProperty" else where in my code, I'd have to cast it.
