How do I make a class that can be indexed like a list in .net?

Classes in .net like List and Dictionary can be indexed directly, without mentioning a member, like this:

Dim MyList as New List (of integer)
...
MyList(5) 'get the sixth elemen开发者_JAVA百科t
MyList.Items(5) 'same thing

How do I make a class that can be indexed like that?

Dim c as New MyClass
...
c(5) 'get the sixth whatever from c

You need to provide an indexer (C# terminology) or default property (VB terminology). Example from the MSDN docs:

VB: (myStrings is a string array)

Default Property myProperty(ByVal index As Integer) As String
    Get
        ' The Get property procedure is called when the value
        ' of the property is retrieved.
        Return myStrings(index)
    End Get
    Set(ByVal Value As String)
        ' The Set property procedure is called when the value
        ' of the property is modified.
        ' The value to be assigned is passed in the argument 
        ' to Set.
        myStrings(index) = Value
    End Set
End Property    

And C# syntax:

public string this[int index]
{
    get { return myStrings[index]; }
    set { myStrings[index] = vaue; }
}
