Thank you Peter for your answer. Yes, it seems that we will need to go that
route.
To avoid delegating all the methods we are planning to do something like:
public class MyMatrixInt : MyMatrix<int>, IMatrixInt
{
}
public class MyMatrixString : MyMatrix<string>, IMatrixString
{
}
Best regards,
Patricio.
