Examples

This example demonstrates using a CodeVariableDeclarationStatement to declare a variable.

// Type of the variable to declare.
// Name of the variable to declare.
// Optional initExpression parameter initializes the variable.
CodeVariableDeclarationStatement^ variableDeclaration = gcnew CodeVariableDeclarationStatement( String::typeid,"TestString",gcnew CodePrimitiveExpression( "Testing" ) );

// A C# code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code:
// string TestString = "Testing";

CodeVariableDeclarationStatement variableDeclaration = new CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(
    // Type of the variable to declare.
    typeof(string),
    // Name of the variable to declare.
    "TestString",
    // Optional initExpression parameter initializes the variable.
    new CodePrimitiveExpression("Testing") );

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

// string TestString = "Testing";

 Dim variableDeclaration As New CodeVariableDeclarationStatement( _
    GetType(String), "TestString", _ 
    New CodePrimitiveExpression("Testing")) 

' The first two parameters indicate the type and name of the variable to declare.
' The optional initExpression parameter initializes the variable.

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

' Dim TestString As String = "Testing"

Remarks

CodeVariableDeclarationStatement can be used to represent code that declares a variable.

The Type property specifies the type of the variable to declare. The Name property specifies the name of the variable to declare. The InitExpression property is optional, and specifies an initialization expression to assign to the variable after it is created.

Note

Some languages can implement the optional variable initialization expression by making a separate assignment statement after the variable declaration.

Constructors

CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(CodeTypeReference, String)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeVariableDeclarationStatement class using the specified type and name.
CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(String, String, CodeExpression)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeVariableDeclarationStatement class using the specified data type, variable name, and initialization expression.
CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(String, String)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeVariableDeclarationStatement class using the specified data type name and variable name.
CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(Type, String, CodeExpression)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeVariableDeclarationStatement class using the specified data type, variable name, and initialization expression.
CodeVariableDeclarationStatement(Type, String)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeVariableDeclarationStatement class using the specified data type and variable name.
