Func および Action 汎用デリゲートでの分散の使用 (C# および Visual Basic)
以下の例では、Func 汎用デリゲートと Action 汎用デリゲートの共変性と反変性を使用して、メソッドの再利用を可能にし、コードの柔軟性を高める方法を示します。
共変性と反変性の詳細については、「デリゲートの分散 (C# および Visual Basic)」を参照してください。
デリゲートと共変の型パラメーターの使用
次の例は、Func 汎用デリゲートにおける共変性のサポートの利点を示しています。FindByTitle メソッドは、String 型のパラメーターを受け取り、Employee 型のオブジェクトを返します。しかし、このメソッドは Func<String, Person> デリゲート (Visual Basic では Func(Of String, Person)) に割り当てることもできます。これは、Employee が Person を継承するためです。
' Simple hierarchy of classes.
Public Class Person
End Class
Public Class Employee
Inherits Person
End Class
Class Finder
Public Shared Function FindByTitle(
ByVal title As String) As Employee
' This is a stub for a method that returns
' an employee that has the specified title.
Return New Employee
End Function
Sub Test()
' Create an instance of the delegate without using variance.
Dim findEmployee As Func(Of String, Employee) =
AddressOf FindByTitle
' The delegate expects a method to return Person,
' but you can assign it a method that returns Employee.
Dim findPerson As Func(Of String, Person) =
AddressOf FindByTitle
' You can also assign a delegate
' that returns a more derived type to a delegate
' that returns a less derived type.
findPerson = findEmployee
End Sub
End Class
// Simple hierarchy of classes.
public class Person { }
public class Employee : Person { }
class Program
{
static Employee FindByTitle(String title)
{
// This is a stub for a method that returns
// an employee that has the specified title.
return new Employee();
}
static void Test()
{
// Create an instance of the delegate without using variance.
Func<String, Employee> findEmployee = FindByTitle;
// The delegate expects a method to return Person,
// but you can assign it a method that returns Employee.
Func<String, Person> findPerson = FindByTitle;
// You can also assign a delegate
// that returns a more derived type
// to a delegate that returns a less derived type.
findPerson = findEmployee;
}
}
デリゲートと反変の型パラメーターの使用
次の例は、Action 汎用デリゲートにおける反変性のサポートの利点を示しています。AddToContacts メソッドは、Person 型のパラメーターを受け取ります。しかし、このメソッドは Action<Employee> デリゲート (Visual Basic では (Action(Of Employee)) に割り当てることもできます。これは、Employee が Person を継承するためです。
Public Class Person
End Class
Public Class Employee
Inherits Person
End Class
Class AddressBook
Shared Sub AddToContacts(ByVal person As Person)
' This method adds a Person object
' to a contact list.
End Sub
Sub Test()
' Create an instance of the delegate without using variance.
Dim addPersonToContacts As Action(Of Person) =
AddressOf AddToContacts
' The Action delegate expects
' a method that has an Employee parameter,
' but you can assign it a method that has a Person parameter
' because Employee derives from Person.
Dim addEmployeeToContacts As Action(Of Employee) =
AddressOf AddToContacts
' You can also assign a delegate
' that accepts a less derived parameter
' to a delegate that accepts a more derived parameter.
addEmployeeToContacts = addPersonToContacts
End Sub
End Class
public class Person { }
public class Employee : Person { }
class Program
{
static void AddToContacts(Person person)
{
// This method adds a Person object
// to a contact list.
}
static void Test()
{
// Create an instance of the delegate without using variance.
Action<Person> addPersonToContacts = AddToContacts;
// The Action delegate expects
// a method that has an Employee parameter,
// but you can assign it a method that has a Person parameter
// because Employee derives from Person.
Action<Employee> addEmployeeToContacts = AddToContacts;
// You can also assign a delegate
// that accepts a less derived parameter to a delegate
// that accepts a more derived parameter.
addEmployeeToContacts = addPersonToContacts;
}
