Contract.Assume Method (Boolean, String)
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Instructs code analysis tools to assume that a condition is true, even if it cannot be statically proven to always be true, and displays a message if the assumption fails.
Namespace: System.Diagnostics.Contracts
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
<ConditionalAttribute("DEBUG")> _
<ConditionalAttribute("CONTRACTS_FULL")> _
Public Shared Sub Assume ( _
condition As Boolean, _
userMessage As String _
)
[ConditionalAttribute("DEBUG")]
[ConditionalAttribute("CONTRACTS_FULL")]
public static void Assume(
bool condition,
string userMessage
)
Parameters
- condition
Type: System.Boolean
The conditional expression to assume true.
- userMessage
Type: System.String
The message to post if the assumption fails.
Remarks
If userMessage is not a constant string literal, the contract may not be understood by tools.
At run time, using this method is equivalent to using the Assert(Boolean, String) method.
