InvocationExpression Class

Represents an expression that applies a delegate or lambda expression to a list of argument expressions.

Namespace:  System.Linq.Expressions
Assembly:  System.Core (in System.Core.dll)

public sealed class InvocationExpression : Expression

Use the Invoke factory methods to create an InvocationExpression.

The NodeType of an InvocationExpression is Invoke.

The following example creates an InvocationExpression that represents invoking a lambda expression with specified arguments.

System.Linq.Expressions.Expression<Func<int, int, bool>> largeSumTest =
    (num1, num2) => (num1 + num2) > 1000;

// Create an InvocationExpression that represents applying 
// the arguments '539' and '281' to the lambda expression 'largeSumTest'.
System.Linq.Expressions.InvocationExpression invocationExpression =
    System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Invoke(
        largeSumTest,
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(539),
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(281));

Console.WriteLine(invocationExpression.ToString());

// This code produces the following output: 
// 
// Invoke((num1, num2) => ((num1 + num2) > 1000),539,281)
