c# - Return an empty IEnumerator

I have an interface that, among other things, implements a "public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()" method, so I can use the interface in a foreach statement.

I implement this interface in several classes and in one of them, I want to return an empty IEnumerator. Right now I do this the following way:

public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
{
    ArrayList arr = new ArrayList();
    return arr.GetEnumerator();
}

However I consider this an ugly hack, and I can't help but think that there is a better way of returning an empty IEnumerator. Is there?

This is simple in C# 2:

public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
{
    yield break;
}

You need the yield break statement to force the compiler to treat it as an iterator block.

This will be less efficient than a "custom" empty iterator, but it's simpler code...
