public static class ExpressionFactory : ObjectMethods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Capture(Object) | Creates a compile-time object that represents a run-time expression, i.e. the syntax or code, and not the result itself. The returned IExpression can then be used in run-time C# code thanks to the Value property. This mechanism allows to generate expressions that depend on a compile-time control flow. |
| CastTo(IExpression, IType) | Returns an expression obtained by casting another expression to a type given as an IType. |
| CastTo(IExpression, Type) | Returns an expression obtained by casting another expression to a type given as a Type. |
| CastTo<T>(IExpression) | Returns an expression obtained by casting another expression to a type given as a generic parameter. |
| Literal(Byte, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Byte to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Decimal, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Decimal to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Double, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Double to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Int16, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Int16 to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Int32) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Int32 to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Int64, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Int64 to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(SByte, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type SByte to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(Single, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type Single to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(String, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type String to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(UInt16, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type UInt16 to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(UInt32, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type UInt32 to the StringBuilder. |
| Literal(UInt64, Boolean) | Returns an expression that represents a literal of type UInt64 to the StringBuilder. |
| Parse(String) | Parses a string containing a C# expression and returns an IExpression. The Value property allows to use this expression in a template. An alternative to this method is the ExpressionBuilder class. |
