Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Represents one case of a SwitchExpression.

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class SwitchCase

public sealed class SwitchCase

The SwitchCase type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Body	Gets the body of this case.
	TestValues	Gets the values of this case. This case is selected for execution when the SwitchValue matches any of these values.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a String that represents the current Object. (Overrides Object.ToString().)
	Update	Creates a new expression that is like this one, but using the supplied children. If all of the children are the same, it will return this expression.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create an expression that represents a switch statement without a default case by using the SwitchCase method.

' Add the following directive to the file:
' Imports System.Linq.Expressions

' An expression that represents the switch value.
Dim switchValue As ConstantExpression = Expression.Constant(2)

' This expression represents a switch statement 
' without a default case.
Dim switchExpr As SwitchExpression =
Expression.Switch(
    switchValue,
    New SwitchCase() {
        Expression.SwitchCase(
            Expression.Call(
                Nothing,
                GetType(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", New Type() {GetType(String)}),
                Expression.Constant("First")
            ),
            Expression.Constant(1)
        ),
        Expression.SwitchCase(
            Expression.Call(
                Nothing,
                GetType(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", New Type() {GetType(String)}),
                Expression.Constant("Second")
            ),
            Expression.Constant(2)
        )
    }
)

' The following statement first creates an expression tree,
' then compiles it, and then runs it.
Expression.Lambda(Of Action)(switchExpr).Compile()()

' This code example produces the following output:
'
' Second

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

// An expression that represents the switch value.
ConstantExpression switchValue = Expression.Constant(2);

// This expression represents a switch statement 
// without a default case.
SwitchExpression switchExpr =
    Expression.Switch(
        switchValue,
        new SwitchCase[] {
               Expression.SwitchCase(
                   Expression.Call(
                       null,
                       typeof(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", new Type[] { typeof(String) }),
                       Expression.Constant("First")
                   ),
                   Expression.Constant(1)
               ),
               Expression.SwitchCase(
                   Expression.Call(
                       null,
                       typeof(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", new Type[] { typeof(String) }),
                       Expression.Constant("Second")
                   ),
                   Expression.Constant(2)
               )
           }
    );

// The following statement first creates an expression tree,
// then compiles it, and then runs it.
Expression.Lambda<Action>(switchExpr).Compile()();

// This code example produces the following output:
//
// Second
