- Feature one—auto initializer for properties:
Before C# 6, we should initialize a property with a value in the class constructor. There is no point in time before the class constructor, so we should use it. Thanks to C# 6 syntax, we can now initialize a property with a value right on the declaration line. No need to use constructor anymore:
-
- Before:
public class Person{ Public class Name {get;set;} Public Person(){ Name = "Stephane"; }}
-
- Now:
Public string Name {get;set;} = "Stephane";
- Feature two—auto initializer for static properties:
Auto initializers can be applied to static properties, as well:
-
- Before:
Public static string Name {get;set;}
-
- Now:
Public static string Name {get;set;} = "Stephane"; ...
