Methods

  Name Description
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone 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.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ToString Returns a textual representation of an ElementInit object. (Overrides Object.ToString().)

Examples

The following example creates an ElementInit that represents the initialization of an element of a dictionary collection.

Dim tree As String = "maple"

Dim addMethod As System.Reflection.MethodInfo = _
    Type.GetType("System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32, System.String]").GetMethod("Add")

' Create an ElementInit that represents calling
' Dictionary(Of Integer, String).Add(tree.Length, tree).
Dim elementInit As System.Linq.Expressions.ElementInit = _
    System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.ElementInit( _
        addMethod, _
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(tree.Length), _
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(tree))

outputBlock.Text &= elementInit.ToString() & vbCrLf

' This code produces the following output:
'
' Void Add(Int32, System.String)(5,"maple")
string tree = "maple";

System.Reflection.MethodInfo addMethod = typeof(Dictionary<int, string>).GetMethod("Add");

// Create an ElementInit that represents calling
// Dictionary<int, string>.Add(tree.Length, tree).
System.Linq.Expressions.ElementInit elementInit =
    System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.ElementInit(
        addMethod,
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(tree.Length),
        System.Linq.Expressions.Expression.Constant(tree));

outputBlock.Text += elementInit.ToString() + "\n";

// This code produces the following output:
//
// Void Add(Int32, System.String)(5,"maple")
