This interface is implemented by all source generated Primitively types. It provides a set of properties to encapsulate a value of a specific .NET primitive type and its metadata.

Namespace: Primitively

Assembly: Primitively.Abstractions.dll

Syntax

public interface IPrimitive

Properties

DataType

Gets the DataType enum representation of the type that the instance encapsulates.

Declaration

DataType DataType { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description

HasValue

Gets a flag indicating whether the instance has a valid value.

Declaration

bool HasValue { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
bool	true if the instance has a valid value; otherwise, false.

Attempts to instantiate a Primitively type with an invalid value will result in a default instance.

Value

Gets the value encapsulated by the instance.
