Compiler Error CS0822
Implicitly typed locals cannot be const
Implicitly typed local variables are only necessary for storing anonymous types. In all other cases they are just a convenience. If the value of the variable never changes, just give it an explicit type. Attempting to use the readonly
modifier with an implicitly typed local will generate CS0106.
- If you require the variable to be constant or
readonly
, give it an explicit type.
The following code generates CS0822:
// cs0822.cs
class A
{
public static int Main()
{
const var x = 0; // CS0822.cs
return -1;
}
}
