property_accessor': must specify number parameter(s)

Check the number of parameters in your get and set methods against property dimensions.

  • The number of parameters for the get method must equal the number of dimensions of the property or be zero for nonindexed properties.

  • The number of parameters of the set method must be one more than the number of dimensions of the property.

For more information, see property.

The following sample generates C3904.

// C3904.cpp  
// compile with: /clr /c  
ref class X {  
   property int P {  
      // set  
      void set();   // C3904  
      // try the following line instead  
      // void set(int);  
  
      // get  
      int get(int, int);   // C3904  
      // try the following line instead  
      // int get();  
   };  
};  

The following sample generates C3904.

// C3904b.cpp  
// compile with: /clr /c  
ref struct X {  
   property int Q[double, double, float, float, void*, int] {  
      // set  
      void set(double, void*);   // C3904  
      // try the following line instead  
      // void set(double, double, float, float, void*, int, int);  
  
      // get  
      int get();   // C3904  
      // try the following line instead  
      // int get(double, double, float, float, void*, int);  
   }  
};
