Examples

The following example demonstrates use of a CodeTypeConstructor to declare a static constructor for a type.

// Declares a new type for a static constructor.
CodeTypeDeclaration^ type1 = gcnew CodeTypeDeclaration( "Type1" );

// Declares a static constructor.
CodeTypeConstructor^ constructor2 = gcnew CodeTypeConstructor;

// Adds the static constructor to the type.
type1->Members->Add( constructor2 );

// A C# code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code:
//    public class Type1 
//    {
//
//        static Type1() 
//        {
//        }       
//    }

// Declares a new type for a static constructor.
CodeTypeDeclaration type1 = new CodeTypeDeclaration("Type1");
// Declares a static constructor.
CodeTypeConstructor constructor2 = new CodeTypeConstructor();
// Adds the static constructor to the type.
type1.Members.Add( constructor2 );

// A C# code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code:

//    public class Type1
//    {
//
//        static Type1()
//        {
//        }
//    }

' Declares a new type for a static constructor.
Dim type1 As New CodeTypeDeclaration("Type1")
' Declares a static constructor.
Dim constructor2 As New CodeTypeConstructor()
' Adds the static constructor to the type.
type1.Members.Add(constructor2)

' A Visual Basic code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code:

'   Public Class Type1
'
'       Shared Sub New()            
'       End Sub
'   End Class

Remarks

CodeTypeConstructor can be used to represent the static constructor for a class. A static constructor is called once when the type is loaded.

Note

Not all languages support static constructors. Support for static constructors can be checked by calling Supports with the StaticConstructors flag to determine if static constructors are supported by the code generator for a particular language.

Constructors

CodeTypeConstructor()

Initializes a new instance of the CodeTypeConstructor class.
