Definition

Namespace:

System

Assembly:

System.Runtime.dll

Source:

Tuple.cs

Gets the value of the current Tuple<T1,T2,T3,T4> object's second component.

public:
 property T2 Item2 { T2 get(); };

public T2 Item2 { get; }

member this.Item2 : 'T2

Public ReadOnly Property Item2 As T2

Property Value

T2

The value of the current Tuple<T1,T2,T3,T4> object's second component.

Examples

The following example defines an array of Tuple<T1,T2,T3,T4> objects whose components contain the name of a city, a month of the year, and the average high and low temperatures for that month. It then retrieves and displays the value of each component.

Remarks

You can dynamically determine the type of the Item2 component in one of two ways:

• By calling the GetType method on the value that is returned by the Item2 property.

• By retrieving the Type object that represents the Tuple<T1,T2,T3,T4> object, and retrieving the second element from the array that is returned by its Type.GetGenericArguments method.
