Struct TypedConstant

Represents a typed value that can be defined, defined to null, or undefined. Used to represent default values, for instance DefaultValue, or attribute arguments.

Properties

Name	Description
HasNullForgivingOperator	Gets a value indicating whether the null-forgiving operator (`!`) should be appended when this TypedConstant is rendered to code. Only applicable when IsNullOrDefault is `true`.
IsArray
IsInitialized	Gets a value indicating whether the Value has been specified (including when it is set to `null`).
IsNullOrDefault	Gets a value indicating whether the value is `null` or `default`. Not to be confused with IsInitialized.
RawValue	Gets the raw value of the TypedConstant. If IsArray is `true`, this property returns an `ImmutableArray<TypedConstant>`.
Type	Gets the type of the value. This is important if the type is an enum, because in this case, if the enum type is not compile-time, Value is set to the underlying integer value.
Value	Gets the Value for non-array types. For array types, get an array of a primitive type (e.g. `int[]`) instead of an array of TypedConstant.
Values

Methods

Name	Description
Create(IField)	Creates a TypedConstant that references a constant field. When rendered to code, this produces a reference to the field (e.g., `MyClass.MyConstField`) instead of the literal value.
Create(object?)
Create(object?, IType?)
Create(object?, Type?)
CreateUnchecked(object?, IType)
Default(IType, bool)	Creates a TypedConstant representing the default value for the specified type. When rendered to code, this produces `default(T)` or `default(T)!` if `hasNullForgivingOperator` is `true`.
Default(Type, bool)	Creates a TypedConstant representing the default value for the specified type. When rendered to code, this produces `default(T)` or `default(T)!` if `hasNullForgivingOperator` is `true`.
