Why does this:
Private [Function] As Func(Of Double, String) = Function(ByRef z As Double) z.ToString
gives the following error:
Nested function does not have a signature that is compatible with delegate String)'.
While this:
Private [Function] As Func(Of Double, String) = Function(ByVal z As Double) z.ToString
Does not? (The difference is ByRef/ByVal)
Furthermore, how might I implement such a thing?
回答1:
You are getting this error because the delegate type Function (ByVal z As Double) As String is not compatible with Function (ByRef z As Double) As String. You need exact match.
Also you can't declare the Func(Of ...) generic delegate with ByRef parameters (ref or out in C#), no matter are you using anonymous function or not.
But you can declare you delegate type and then use it even with your anonymous function
Delegate Function ToStringDelegate(ByRef value As Double) As String
Sub Main()
Dim Del As ToStringDelegate = Function(ByRef value As Double) value.ToString()
End Sub
or you can use implicit typing (if the Option Infer is turned on)
Dim Del = Function(ByRef value As Double) value.ToString()

On MSDN it mentions the following rules apply to variable scope in lambda expressions:
- A variable that is captured will not be garbage-collected until the delegate that references it goes out of scope.
- Variables introduced within a lambda expression are not visible in the outer method.
- A lambda expression cannot directly capture a ref [ByRef in VB] or out parameter from an enclosing method.
- A return statement in a lambda expression does not cause the enclosing method to return.
- A lambda expression cannot contain a goto statement, break statement, or continue statement whose target is outside the body or in the body of a contained anonymous function.
