Class VBVariantType

Namespace

Assembly

A VBIntrinsicType<T> representing the Variant data type.

public sealed record VBVariantType : VBIntrinsicType<object>, IEquatable<VBType>, IEquatable<VBIntrinsicType>, IEquatable<VBIntrinsicType<object>>, IEquatable<VBVariantType>

Inheritance

Remarks

The managed type of a value of this data type is object.
👉 The VBVariant subtype can be any VBType including VBVariant, or otherwise semantically invalid data types such as VBUnknownType.

Constructors

VBVariantType(VBType)

A VBIntrinsicType<T> representing the Variant data type.

public VBVariantType(VBType SubType)

Parameters

SubType VBType

The variant subtype, or wrapped data type.

Remarks

The managed type of a value of this data type is object.
👉 The VBVariant subtype can be any VBType including VBVariant, or otherwise semantically invalid data types such as VBUnknownType.

Properties

DefaultValue

Gets the default value for this data type.

public override VBVariantValue DefaultValue { get; }

Property Value

VBVariantValue

Remarks

⚠️ Derived types must back the implementation of this property with a thread-safe private static readonly Lazy<T>. Failure to do so would lock up the static context initialization of the StaticSymbol symbols.

SubType

The variant subtype, or wrapped data type.

public VBType SubType { get; init; }

Property Value

VBType

Subtype

The variant subtype, or wrapped data type.

public VBType Subtype { get; }

Property Value

VBType

TypeInfo

The Variant data type.

public static VBVariantType TypeInfo { get; }

Property Value

VBVariantType

Methods

CreateValue(IBindingHandle)

Creates a value of this type bound to handle.

public override VBTypedValue CreateValue(IBindingHandle handle)

Parameters

handle IBindingHandle

Returns

VBTypedValue

Remarks

The base implementation throws: only types that can hold a runtime value override this (matches the intent of the removed VBTypedValueFactory.CreateValue(VBType) switch, which returned null for the rest).
