The following code example shows how to create an expression that represents a conditional block.
// Add the following directive to the file: // using System.Linq.Expressions; bool test = true; // This expression represents the conditional block. Expression ifThenExpr = Expression.IfThen( Expression.Constant(test), Expression.Call( null, typeof(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", new Type[] { typeof(String) }), Expression.Constant("The condition is true.") ) ); // The following statement first creates an expression tree, // then compiles it, and then runs it. Expression.Lambda<Action>(ifThenExpr).Compile()(); // This code example produces the following output: // // The condition is true.
