Initializing C# auto-properties [duplicate]

问题

This question already has an answer here:

What is the best way to give a C# auto-property an initial value? 21 answers

I\'m used to writing classes like this:

public class foo {
  private string mBar = \"bar\";
  public string Bar {
    get { return mBar; }
    set { mBar = value; }
  }
  //... other methods, no constructor ...
}

Converting Bar to an auto-property seems convenient and concise, but how can I retain the initialization without adding a constructor and putting the initialization in there?

public class foo2theRevengeOfFoo {
  //private string mBar = \"bar\";
  public string Bar { get; set; }
  //... other methods, no constructor ...
  //behavior has changed.
}

You could see that adding a constructor isn\'t inline with the effort savings I\'m supposed to be getting from auto-properties.

Something like this would make more sense to me:

public string Bar { get; set; } = \"bar\";

Update - the answer below was written before C# 6 came along. In C# 6 you can write:

public class Foo
{
    public string Bar { get; set; } = "bar";
}

You can also write read-only automatically-implemented properties, which are only writable in the constructor (but can also be given a default initial value:

public class Foo
{
    public string Bar { get; }

    public Foo(string bar)
    {
        Bar = bar;
    }
}

It's unfortunate that there's no way of doing this right now. You have to set the value in the constructor. (Using constructor chaining can help to avoid duplication.)

Automatically implemented properties are handy right now, but could certainly be nicer. I don't find myself wanting this sort of initialization as often as a read-only automatically implemented property which could only be set in the constructor and would be backed by a read-only field.

This hasn't happened up until and including C# 5, but is being planned for C# 6 - both in terms of allowing initialization at the point of declaration, and allowing for read-only automatically implemented properties to be initialized in a constructor body.

You can do it via the constructor of your class:

public class foo {
  public foo(){
    Bar = "bar";
  }
  public string Bar {get;set;}
}

If you've got another constructor (ie, one that takes paramters) or a bunch of constructors you can always have this (called constructor chaining):

public class foo {
  private foo(){
    Bar = "bar";
    Baz = "baz";
  }
  public foo(int something) : this(){
    //do specialized initialization here
    Baz = string.Format("{0}Baz", something);
  }
  public string Bar {get; set;}
  public string Baz {get; set;}
}

If you always chain a call to the default constructor you can have all default property initialization set there. When chaining, the chained constructor will be called before the calling constructor so that your more specialized constructors will be able to set different defaults as applicable.

This will be possible in C# 6.0:

public int Y { get; } = 2;

回答4:

In the default constructor (and any non-default ones if you have any too of course):

public foo() {
    Bar = "bar";
}

This is no less performant that your original code I believe, since this is what happens behind the scenes anyway.
