Expression.ConvertChecked Method (Expression, Type)

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

Creates a UnaryExpression that represents a conversion operation that throws an exception if the target type is overflowed.

Namespace:  System.Linq.Expressions
Assembly:  System.Core (in System.Core.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function ConvertChecked ( _
    expression As Expression, _
    type As Type _
) As UnaryExpression

public static UnaryExpression ConvertChecked(
    Expression expression,
    Type type
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Linq.Expressions.UnaryExpression
A UnaryExpression that has the NodeType property equal to ConvertChecked and the Operand and Type properties set to the specified values.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

expression or type is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
InvalidOperationException

No conversion operator is defined between expression.Type and type.

Remarks

The Method property of the resulting UnaryExpression is set to the implementing method. The IsLiftedToNull property is false. If the node is lifted, IsLifted is true. Otherwise, it is false.

Implementing Method

The following rules determine the implementing method for the operation:

  • If either expression.Type or type is a user-defined type that defines an implicit or explicit conversion operator, the MethodInfo that represents that operator is the implementing method.

  • Otherwise:

    • If both expression.Type and type represent numeric or Boolean types, or nullable or non-nullable enumeration types, the implementing method is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

    • If either expression.Type or type is a reference type and an explicit boxing, unboxing, or reference conversion exists from expression.Type to type, the implementing method is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Lifted versus Non-Lifted

If the implementing method is not nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic):

  • If expression.Type is assignable to the argument type of the implementing method and the return type of the implementing method is assignable to type, the node is not lifted.

  • If either or both of expression.Type or type are a nullable value type and the corresponding non-nullable value types are equal to the argument type and the return type of the implementing method respectively, the node is lifted.

If the implementing method is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic):

  • If both expression.Type and type are non-nullable, the node is not lifted.

  • Otherwise the node is lifted.
