Please, help me to explain the following behavior:
dynamic d = 1;
ISet<dynamic> s = new HashSet<dynamic>();
s.Contains(d);
The code compiles with no errors/warnings, but at the last line I get the following exception:
Unhandled Exception: Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.RuntimeBinderException: 'System.Collections.Generic.ISet<object>' does not contain a definition for 'Contains'
at CallSite.Target(Closure , CallSite , ISet`1 , Object )
at System.Dynamic.UpdateDelegates.UpdateAndExecuteVoid2[T0,T1](CallSite site, T0 arg0, T1 arg1)
at FormulaToSimulation.Program.Main(String[] args) in
As far as I can tell, this is related to dynamic overload resolution, but the strange things are
(1) If the type of s is HashSet<dynamic>, no exception occurs.
(2) If I use a non-generic interface with a method accepting a dynamic argument, no exception occurs.
Thus, it looks like this problem is related particularly with generic interfaces, but I could not find out what exactly causes the problem.
Is it a bug in the compiler/typesystem, or legitimate behavior?
