virtual xtd::string xtd::object::to_string ( ) const

virtualnoexcept

Returns a xtd::string that represents the current object.

Returns

A string that represents the current object.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates what to_string returns.

#include <xtd/xtd>
 
using namespace xtd;
 
namespace examples {
  namespace object_test {
    class object1 : public object {
    };
  }
}
 
auto main() -> int {
  ptr<object> obj1 = new_ptr<examples::object_test::object1>();
  console::write_line(obj1->to_string());
 
  ptr<object> obj2 = new_ptr<date_time>(1971, 1, 5, 23, 5, 0);
  console::write_line(obj2->to_string());
 
  ptr<object> obj3 = new_ptr<boolean_object>();
  console::write_line(obj3->to_string());
}
 
// This code produces the following output :
//
// examples::object_test::object1
// Tue Jan  5 23:05:00 1971
// false
