如何:定义转换运算符 (Visual Basic)
如果已定义了类或结构,则可以定义类或结构的类型与其他数据类型(如 Integer、Double 或 String)之间的类型转换运算符。
将类型转换定义为类型或结构中的 CType 函数 (Visual Basic) 过程。所有转换过程必须为 Public Shared,并且每个转换过程必须指定 Widening (Visual Basic) 或 Narrowing (Visual Basic)。
在类或结构上定义一个运算符也称为重载运算符。
示例
下面的示例定义名称为 digit 的结构与 Byte 之间的转换运算符。
Public Structure digit
Private dig As Byte
Public Sub New(ByVal b As Byte)
If (b < 0 OrElse b > 9) Then Throw New System.ArgumentException(
"Argument outside range for Byte")
Me.dig = b
End Sub
Public Shared Widening Operator CType(ByVal d As digit) As Byte
Return d.dig
End Operator
Public Shared Narrowing Operator CType(ByVal b As Byte) As digit
Return New digit(b)
End Operator
End Structure
可以使用下面的代码测试结构 digit。
Public Sub consumeDigit()
Dim d1 As New digit(4)
Dim d2 As New digit(7)
Dim d3 As digit = CType(CByte(3), digit)
Dim s As String = "Initial 4 generates " & CStr(CType(d1, Byte)) &
vbCrLf & "Initial 7 generates " & CStr(CType(d2, Byte)) &
vbCrLf & "Converted 3 generates " & CStr(CType(d3, Byte))
Try
Dim d4 As digit
d4 = CType(CType(d1, Byte) + CType(d2, Byte), digit)
Catch e4 As System.Exception
s &= vbCrLf & "4 + 7 generates " & """" & e4.Message & """"
End Try
Try
Dim d5 As digit = CType(CByte(10), digit)
Catch e5 As System.Exception
s &= vbCrLf & "Initial 10 generates " & """" & e5.Message & """"
End Try
MsgBox(s)
End Sub
