ConsoleKeyInfo.KeyChar Property

Definition

Gets the Unicode character represented by the current ConsoleKeyInfo object.

public:
 property char KeyChar { char get(); };
public char KeyChar { get; }
member this.KeyChar : char
Public ReadOnly Property KeyChar As Char

Property Value

An object that corresponds to the console key represented by the current ConsoleKeyInfo object.

Examples

The following example uses the KeyChar property to add the characters input by the user into a string. The example ignores special keys other than ENTER, ESC, and BACKSPACE.

Remarks

If the key pressed does not map to a Unicode character (for example, if the user presses the F1 key or the Home key), the value of the KeyChar property is \U0000.
