      }

      var value = new MyObject(1,2,3);

      Why is MyObject.Value3 always equal to 0? /slaps self repeatedly, and insert appropriate comic[^]

        I think it does issue a warning when you assign something to itself...at least I recall seeing one. I was more focused on the missing types in the property declarations.

                In c++ you will get at least a warning "Parameter value3" not used :-\ :-D

                It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

                  There (sort of) is a warning for self-assignment. If you assign

                  value3 = value3

                  you do get a warning. If you assign

                  Value3 = Value3

                  you do not get a warning. Strange, the warning must only be for self-assignment of variables, but not properties?

                    Not that strange: properties are syntactic sugar for getter and setter methods, so what you are actually doing is:

                    Value3 = Value3;

                    Value3_setter(Value3_getter());

                    But the compiler should have spotted it:: lazy programmers strike again ... :laugh:

                      Yeah, in their defense, I guess there are cases where that "self-assignment" might actually have "desired" side effects (such as modifying some other local variable). Though, I'd still like it if the compiler kicked out a low level warning...mostly, because I'm bound to make that mistake myself sometime :(

                              All languages have their stupid parts, this is in my opinion one of the major ones of the languages deriving from C.

                                Unfortunately that happens, and aging doesn't help. Interestingly enough, in spite of 0x01AA remark, g++ doesn't complain about

                                class Foo
                                {
                                int F;
                                public:
                                Foo(int f){F = F;}
                                //...

                                But it does complain about (which is, by the way, the construct every sensible C++ developer would have chosen)

                                class Foo
                                {
                                int F;
                                public:
                                Foo(int f):F(F){}
                                //...

                                spitting out a sane

                                warning: ‘Foo::F’ is initialized with itself

                                    I don't even know what language this is, but I will presume Java. :^) You have Value3 being assigned to the value of ... Value3, so nothing happens there. Evidently, it is initialized to the value of 0. Is it a default int when there is no declaration type? :confused:

                                      C#, and exactly. Stared and stared and stared and debugged and stared and had another coffee then... :doh: C# will warn you if you do "=" instead of "==" but I was surprised it didn't warn about X = X.

                                              Value2 = value2;
                                              Value3 = Value3;
                                          }
                                          

                                          }

                                          var value = new MyObject(1,2,3);

                                          Why is MyObject.Value3 always equal to 0? /slaps self repeatedly, and insert appropriate comic[^]

                                          Looks like you've committed a capital offence!
