CodeSnippetExpression Class

Represents a literal expression.

Namespace: System.CodeDom
Assembly: System (in System.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

<SerializableAttribute> _
<ComVisibleAttribute(True)> _
<ClassInterfaceAttribute(ClassInterfaceType.AutoDispatch)> _
Public Class CodeSnippetExpression _
    Inherits CodeExpression

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As CodeSnippetExpression

[SerializableAttribute]
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
[ClassInterfaceAttribute(ClassInterfaceType.AutoDispatch)]
public class CodeSnippetExpression : CodeExpression

Visual C++

[SerializableAttribute]
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
[ClassInterfaceAttribute(ClassInterfaceType::AutoDispatch)]
public ref class CodeSnippetExpression : public CodeExpression

JScript

public class CodeSnippetExpression extends CodeExpression

Remarks

A literal expression stores the code of an expression as a literal code fragment. The CodeDOM does not translate literal code fragments. Literal code fragments are stored and output just as they are. CodeDOM objects that contain literal code are provided so developers can encapsulate code that is already in the target language.

The Value property contains the literal code for this snippet expression.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create an instance of the CodeSnippetExpression class using a literal code fragment.

Visual Basic

' Creates a CodeSnippetExpression that represents a literal string that
' can be used as an expression in a CodeDOM graph.
Dim literalExpression As New CodeSnippetExpression("Literal expression")

// Creates a CodeSnippetExpression that represents a literal string that
// can be used as an expression in a CodeDOM graph.
CodeSnippetExpression literalExpression = 
    new CodeSnippetExpression("Literal expression");

Visual C++

// Creates a CodeSnippetExpression that represents a literal string that
// can be used as an expression in a CodeDOM graph.
CodeSnippetExpression^ literalExpression =
   gcnew CodeSnippetExpression( "Literal expression" );
