We recommend avoiding ``Godot.Variant`` unless it is necessary to interact with untyped engine APIs.
|
||||
Take advantage of C#'s type safety when possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Converting from a supported type to ``Godot.Variant`` can be done using implicit conversions. Also
|
||||
available are ``CreateFrom`` method overloads and the generic ``Variant.From<T>`` methods.
|
||||
Converting from a Variant-compatible C# type to ``Godot.Variant`` can be done using implicit
|
||||
conversions. Also available are ``CreateFrom`` method overloads and the generic ``Variant.From<T>``
|
||||
methods. Only the syntax is different: the behavior is the same.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: csharp
|
||||
|
||||
int x = 42;
|
||||
Godot.Variant number = x;
|
||||
Godot.Variant hello = "Hello, World!";
|
||||
Variant numberVariant = x;
|
||||
Variant helloVariant = "Hello, World!";
|
||||
|
||||
Godot.Variant number2 = Godot.Variant.CreateFrom(x);
|
||||
Godot.Variant number3 = Godot.Variant.From(x);
|
||||
Variant numberVariant2 = Variant.CreateFrom(x);
|
||||
Variant numberVariant3 = Variant.From(x);
|
||||
|
||||
Implicit conversions to ``Godot.Variant`` make passing variants as method arguments very convenient.
|
||||
For example, ``final_val`` of :ref:`tween_property<class_Tween_method_tween_property>`.
|
||||
For example, the third argument of :ref:`tween_property<class_Tween_method_tween_property>`
|
||||
specifying the final color of the tween is a ``Godot.Variant``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: csharp
|
||||
|
||||
Tween tween = CreateTween();
|
||||
tween.TweenProperty(GetNode("Sprite"), "modulate", Colors.Red, 1.0f);
|
||||
|
||||
Converting from ``Godot.Variant`` to a supported type can be done using explicit conversions. Also
|
||||
available are ``Variant.As{TYPE}`` methods or the generic ``Variant.As<T>`` method.
|
||||
Converting from ``Godot.Variant`` to a C# type can be done using explicit conversions. Also
|
||||
available are ``Variant.As{TYPE}`` methods or the generic ``Variant.As<T>`` method. All of these
|
||||
behave the same.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: csharp
|
||||
|
||||
int cSharpNumber = (int)number;
|
||||
string cSharpHello = (string)hello;
|
||||
int number = (int)numberVariant;
|
||||
string hello = (string)helloVariant;
|
||||
|
||||
int cSharpNumber2 = number.As<int>();
|
||||
string cSharpHello2 = hello.AsString();
|
||||
int number2 = numberVariant.As<int>();
|
||||
int number3 = numberVariant.AsInt32();
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
All methods of converting from ``Godot.Variant`` to a C# type behave the same way. If conversion
|
||||
is not possible, the default value of the target type or an empty array is returned. An
|
||||
exception is not thrown.
|
||||
The ``Variant.As{TYPE}`` methods are typically named after C# types (``Int32``), not C# keywords
|
||||
(``int``).
|
||||
|
||||
A matching type is not necessary for a conversion to succeed. For example, all variants are
|
||||
convertible to ``string``.
|
||||
If the Variant type doesn't match the conversion target type, the consequences vary depending on the
|
||||
source and target values.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: csharp
|
||||
- The conversion may examine the value and return a similar but potentially unexpected value of the
|
||||
target type. For example, the string ``"42a"`` may be converted to the integer ``42``.
|
||||
- The default value of the target type may be returned.
|
||||
- An empty array may be returned.
|
||||
- An exception may be thrown.
|
||||
|
||||
string s = Variant.From(new Vector3(1, 3, 9)).As<string>();
|
||||
GD.Print(s); // (1, 3, 9)
|
||||
Converting to the correct type avoids complicated behavior and should be preferred.
|
||||
|
||||
Some C# types are not directly represented by ``Variant.Type``. The ``Variant.As{TYPE}`` method uses
|
||||
a more specific name to represent them.
|
||||
The ``Variant.Obj`` property returns a C# ``object`` with the correct value for any variant. This
|
||||
may be useful when the type of Variant is completely unknown. However, when possible, prefer more
|
||||
specific conversions. ``Variant.Obj`` evaluates a ``switch`` on ``Variant.VariantType`` and it may
|
||||
not be necessary. Also, if the result is a value type, it may be boxed when it normally wouldn't be.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: csharp
|
||||
|
||||
int cSharpNumber3 = number.AsInt32();
|
||||
|
||||
To convert ``Godot.Variant`` to a C# ``object`` without specifying a more specific target type, use
|
||||
the ``Variant.Obj`` property. This can be used to compare two variants that both have unknown types
|
||||
using the equality operator ``==``. When possible, prefer more specific conversions. ``Variant.Obj``
|
||||
may result in unnecessary boxing of value types.
|
||||
For example, if the potential for ``Variant.As<MyNode>()`` to throw a invalid cast exception isn't
|
||||
acceptable, consider using a ``Variant.As<GodotObject>() is MyNode n`` type pattern instead.
