Expression.NodeType Property

Definition

Gets the node type of this Expression.

C#
public virtual System.Linq.Expressions.ExpressionType NodeType { get; }
C#
public System.Linq.Expressions.ExpressionType NodeType { get; }

Property Value

One of the ExpressionType values.

Remarks

The NodeType property provides a more specialized description of an Expression than just its derived type. For example, a BinaryExpression can be used to represent many different kinds of binary expressions, such as a division operation or a "greater than" operation. The NodeType property would describe these binary expressions as Divide and GreaterThan, respectively.

The static CLR type of the expression that the Expression object represents is represented by the Type property.
