Examples

The following code example shows how to pass a parameter to a block expression and process this parameter within a block.

// Add the following directive to your file:
// using System.Linq.Expressions;

// This block has a parameter expression
// that represents a variable within the block scope.
// It assigns a value to the variable,
// and then adds a constant to the assigned value.

ParameterExpression varExpr = Expression.Variable(typeof(int), "sampleVar");
BlockExpression blockExpr = Expression.Block(
    new ParameterExpression[] { varExpr },
    Expression.Assign(varExpr, Expression.Constant(1)),
    Expression.Add(varExpr, Expression.Constant(5))
);

// Print out the expressions from the block expression.
Console.WriteLine("The expressions from the block expression:");
foreach (var expr in blockExpr.Expressions)
    Console.WriteLine(expr.ToString());

Console.WriteLine("The result of executing the expression tree:");
// The following statement first creates an expression tree,
// then compiles it, and then executes it.
Console.WriteLine(
    Expression.Lambda<Func<int>>(blockExpr).Compile()());

// This code example produces the following output:
// The expressions from the block expression:
// (sampleVar = 1)
// (sampleVar + 5)
// The result of executing the expression tree:
// 6
' Add the following directive to your file:
' Imports System.Linq.Expressions  


' This block has a parameter expression
' that represents a variable within the block scope.
' It assigns a value to the variable,
' and then adds a constant to the assigned value. 

Dim varExpr As ParameterExpression = Expression.Variable(GetType(Integer), "sampleVar")
Dim blockExpr As BlockExpression = Expression.Block(
    New ParameterExpression() {varExpr},
    Expression.Assign(varExpr, Expression.Constant(1)),
    Expression.Add(varExpr, Expression.Constant(5))
)

' Print the expressions from the block expression.

Console.WriteLine("The expressions from the block expression:")
For Each expr In blockExpr.Expressions
    Console.WriteLine(expr.ToString())
Next

Console.WriteLine("The result of executing the expression tree:")

' The following statement first creates an expression tree,
' then compiles it, and then executes it.
Console.WriteLine(
    Expression.Lambda(Of Func(Of Integer))(blockExpr).Compile()())

' This code example produces the following output:
'
' The expressions from the block expression:
' (sampleVar = 1)
' (sampleVar + 5)
' The result of executing the expression tree:

Examples

The following code example shows how to create a block expression. The block expression consists of two MethodCallExpression objects and one ConstantExpression object.

// Add the following directive to your file:
// using System.Linq.Expressions;

// The block expression allows for executing several expressions sequentually.
// When the block expression is executed,
// it returns the value of the last expression in the sequence.
BlockExpression blockExpr = Expression.Block(
    Expression.Call(
        null,
        typeof(Console).GetMethod("Write", new Type[] { typeof(String) }),
        Expression.Constant("Hello ")
       ),
    Expression.Call(
        null,
        typeof(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", new Type[] { typeof(String) }),
        Expression.Constant("World!")

Console.WriteLine("The result of executing the expression tree:");
// The following statement first creates an expression tree,
// then compiles it, and then executes it.
var result = Expression.Lambda<Func<int>>(blockExpr).Compile()();

// Print out the expressions from the block expression.
Console.WriteLine("The expressions from the block expression:");
foreach (var expr in blockExpr.Expressions)
    Console.WriteLine(expr.ToString());

// Print out the result of the tree execution.
Console.WriteLine("The return value of the block expression:");
Console.WriteLine(result);

// This code example produces the following output:
//
// The result of executing the expression tree:
// Hello World!

// The expressions from the block expression:
// Write("Hello ")
// WriteLine("World!")
// 42

// The return value of the block expression:
// 42
' Add the following directive to your file:
' Imports System.Linq.Expressions

' The block expression enables you to execute several expressions sequentually.
' When the block expression is executed,
' it returns the value of the last expression in the sequence.
Dim blockExpr As BlockExpression = Expression.Block(
    Expression.Call(
        Nothing,
        GetType(Console).GetMethod("Write", New Type() {GetType(String)}),
        Expression.Constant("Hello ")
       ),
    Expression.Call(
        Nothing,
        GetType(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", New Type() {GetType(String)}),
        Expression.Constant("World!")
        ),
