Hi,  
I have a created a dll using c# .net. I am trying to access this dll  
using rubyclr. Templates are to be passed as parameters to this dll to  
return a specific object.

window.Get(SearchCriteria.ByText(“buttonname”))

Where Button is the template which is to be passed to get the button  
object  
Following is the button definition

```
 public virtual T Get<T>(SearchCriteria searchCriteria) where T : 

```

UIItem  
{  
return (T) Get(searchCriteria.AndControlType(typeof (T)));  
}

Where T is the template.

Does anyone know how to pass this template Button using ruby so that i  
can access the dll using ruby.  
Does Ruby support templates.
