CodeDefaultValueExpression Class
Represents a reference to a default value.
System.CodeDom::CodeObject
System.CodeDom::CodeExpression
System.CodeDom::CodeDefaultValueExpression
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The CodeDefaultValueExpression type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | CodeDefaultValueExpression() | Initializes a new instance of the CodeDefaultValueExpression class. |
![]() | CodeDefaultValueExpression(CodeTypeReference) | Initializes a new instance of the CodeDefaultValueExpression class using the specified code type reference. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Type | Gets or sets the data type reference for a default value. |
![]() | UserData | Gets the user-definable data for the current object. (Inherited from CodeObject.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
A CodeDefaultValueExpression can be used to represent a reference to a default value.
The Type property specifies the reference to the value type. The CodeDefaultValueExpression class is used in the generation of generics-based code. For more information on generics, see Generics in the .NET Framework Class Library (C# Programming Guide). The following code steps are provided in this section to further describe the use of the CodeDefaultValueExpression class to add a new default value to a code graph.
The code in part 1 is part of a larger example provided for the CodeTypeParameter class. This code, when run through the C# code generator, results in the C# code that appears in part 2. When this code is called in the statement in part 3, the result is the output shown in part 4.
// Part 1: Code to create a generic Print method.
CodeMemberMethod printMethod = new CodeMemberMethod();
CodeTypeParameter sType = new CodeTypeParameter("S");
sType.HasConstructorConstraint = true;
CodeTypeParameter tType = new CodeTypeParameter("T");
sType.HasConstructorConstraint = true;
printMethod.Name = "Print";
printMethod.TypeParameters.Add(sType);
printMethod.TypeParameters.Add(tType);
printMethod.Statements.Add(ConsoleWriteLineStatement(
new CodeDefaultValueExpression(new CodeTypeReference("T"))));
printMethod.Statements.Add(ConsoleWriteLineStatement(
new CodeDefaultValueExpression(new CodeTypeReference("S"))));
// Part 2: Code generated by code in part 1.
public virtual void Print<S, T>()
where S : new()
{
Console.WriteLine(default(T));
Console.WriteLine(default(S));
}
// Part 3: Call to the generated method. dict.Print<System.Decimal, int>();
// Part 4: Output of the generated method. 0 0
The following code example shows the use of the CodeDefaultValueExpression to create default values for decimal and integer parameters. This example is part of a larger example provided for the CodeTypeParameter class.
