PROPERTIES IN C#

uk365guy
Programming languages that does not have properties use getter and setter methods to encapsulate and protect fields.

In this example we use the SetId(Int Id) and GetId() methods to encapsulate _id class field

As a result, we have better control on what gets assigned and returned from the _id field.

Note: Encapsulation is one of the primary pillars of object oriented programming.


PROPERTIES:

using ConsoleApplication4;

namespace ConsoleApplication4
{
    public class Student
    {
        private int _id;
        private string _Name;
        private int _PassMark = 35;

        public int GetPassMark()
        {
            return this._PassMark;
        }
        public void SetName(string Name)
        {

            //return string.IsNullOrEmpty(this._Name) ? “no name” : this._Name;{ this is using turnary operator
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Name))
            {
                throw new Exception(“NAME SHOULD NOT BE EMPTY OR NULL”);
            }
            this._Name = Name;
        }

        public string GetName()
        {
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(this._Name))
            {
                return  ” no name”;
            }
            else
            {
                return this._Name;
            }
        }
       

        public void SetId(int Id)
        {
            if(Id <= 0)
            {
                throw new Exception(“Student Id can not be negative”);
            }
            this._id = Id;
        }

        public int GetId()
        {
            return this._id;
        }
    }


   public class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            Student C1 = new Student();
            C1.SetId(101);
            C1.SetName(“MALLA”);

            Console.WriteLine(“student id = {0}”, C1.GetId());
            Console.WriteLine(“student Name = {0}”, C1.GetName());
            Console.WriteLine(“student PassMark = {0}”, C1.GetPassMark());
            Console.ReadLine();

}


===========================

In C# we use set and get properties


Read/Write properties

Read Only Properties

Write Only Properties

Auto Implemented Properties

properties

1. we use get and set accessors to implement properties

2. A property with both get and set accessor is a Read/Write property

3. A property with only get accessor is a Read Only property.

4. A property with only set accessor is a Write only property

Note: The advantage of properties over traditional Get() and Set() methods is that, you can access them as if they were public fields.

                C1.Name = “malla”;

                Console.WriteLine(“student PassMark = {0}”, C1.PassMark);
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }

———————————-

>If there is no additional logic in the property accessors, then we can make use of auto-implementation properties introduced in c# 3.0
>Auto-implementation properties reduce the amount of code that we have to write.
>when you use auto-implementation properties, the compiler creates a private anonymous field that can only be accessed through the property’s get and set accessors.

POLYMORPHISM IN C# WITH SAMPLE EXAMPLE

uk365guy

Polymorphism is a primary pillars of object oriented programming

Polymorphism allow you to invoke derived class methods through a base class reference during runtime. 

In the base class the method is declared as virtual and in the derived class we override the same method with “override keyword”.

The virtual keyword indicates, the method can be overridden in any derived class. 

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using ConsoleApplication4;

namespace ConsoleApplication4
{

    /// <summary>
    /// Polymorphism example
    /// </summary>
    public class Employee
    {
        public string FirstName = “FN”;
        public string LastName = “LN”;
     

        public virtual void PrintFullName()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(FirstName + ” ” + LastName);
        }

    }

    public class FullTimeEmployee : Employee
    {
        public override void PrintFullName()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(FirstName + ” ” + LastName + “- FullTimeEmployee”);
        }
     
    }
    public class PartTimeEmployee : Employee
    {
        public override void PrintFullName()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(FirstName + ” ” + LastName + ” – PartTimeEmployee”);
        }
    }
    public class TemporaryEmployee : Employee
    {
        public override void PrintFullName()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(FirstName + ” ” + LastName + ” – TemporaryEmployee”);
        }
    }
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
           Employee[] employees = new Employee[4];

           employees[0] = new FullTimeEmployee();
           employees[1] = new PartTimeEmployee();
           employees[2] = new TemporaryEmployee();
           employees[3] = new Employee();
           foreach (Employee e in employees)
