The following example code demonstrates use of a CodeThisReferenceExpression to refer to the current object.

C++

// Invokes the TestMethod method of the current type object.
CodeMethodReferenceExpression^ methodRef1 = gcnew CodeMethodReferenceExpression( gcnew CodeThisReferenceExpression,"TestMethod" );
array<CodeParameterDeclarationExpression^>^temp1;
CodeMethodInvokeExpression^ invoke1 = gcnew CodeMethodInvokeExpression( methodRef1,temp1 );

// A C# code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code:
//        this.TestMethod();
