Thread: How to dominate ToString() method in C#?

I am last year bsc(IT) student. Currently i am learning C# programming language. I want detailed information about How to override ToString() method in C#?. Can anybody tell me how to override ToString() method in C# with example. Thanks in advanced.

You can state ToString method with the following modifiers:

Code:

public override string ToString(){}
Just try to understand this code. The following code returns the data exact to a particular instance of the class
class PersonEg
{ 
  string Ename;
  int ECode;
  SampleObject(string Ename, int ECode)
  {
  this.Ename = Ename;
  this.ECode = ECode;
  }
  public override string ToString() 
  {
     string ss = ECode.ToString();
     return "Persons: " + Ename + " " + ss;
  }
}

I suggest you to refer following example of ToString method, which will give you something idea about the use of ToString method inherited from System.Object using private variables:

Code:

public class MyClassEg
{
   private string customername ="";
   private int customersIDs = 0;
 
   public string CustomersName
   {
      get { return customername; }
      set { customername = values; }
   }
 
   public int CustomersIDs
   {
      get { return customersIDs; }
      set { customersIDs = values; }
   }
 
   public override string ToString()
   {
      return string.Format s("Customers = {0} ID = {1}", Customers, CustomersIDs);
   }
 
}
