Interview question on C# implicit conversion

I have been given a sample statement:

开发者_如何转开发MyClass myclass = 3;

How is it possible to make this a valid statement? What code do I need to include in MyClass to support the implicit conversion from an int?

You need an implicit conversion operator:

public class MyClass
{
    private readonly int value;
    public MyClass(int value)
    {
        this.value = value;
    }

    public static implicit operator MyClass(int value)
    {
        return new MyClass(value);
    }
}

Personally I'm not a huge fan of implicit conversions most of the time. Occasionally they're useful, but think carefully before putting them in your code. They can be pretty confusing when you're reading code.

On the other hand, when used thoughtfully, they can be amazingly handy - I'm thinking particularly of the conversions from string to XName and XNamespace in LINQ to XML.

Here's how:

public class MyClass
{
    public static implicit operator MyClass(int i)
    {
        return new MyClass(i);
    }
}

This uses C# feature called implicit conversion operator.

It's possible if MyClass has an implicit conversion from int.

Using Conversion Operators

---

Just implement an implicit conversion operator.

You need to overload the implicit constructor operator:

public static implicit operator MyClass (int rhs)
{ 
    MyClass c = new MyClass (rhs);
    return c;
}
