This collection uses the BindingList generic collection to create a collection that only objects that implement the interface. This class also implements the ICustomTypeDescriptor to provide dynamic infomation about the collection.

Since this class utilizes a generic collection class, .Net based objects can obtain the Port objects directly by using the index of the object. The .Net collection is 0-index, that is, the index of the first Port is 0, and the nth Port has an index of n-1.

In addition, the collection can be accessed through the ICapeCollection interface. The ICapeCollection members are implemented privately, making them available only available through the interface.
