default value for generic type in c# [duplicate]
-

Question
The docs for Dictionary.TryGetValue say:
When this method returns, [the value argument] contains the value associated with the specified key, if the key is found; otherwise, the default value for the type of the value parameter. This parameter is passed uninitialized.
I need to mimic this in my class. How do I find the default value for type T?
How can this question be modified to make it show up in the search?
Exact duplicate of Returning a default value. (C#)
Solution
You are looking for this:
default(T);
so:
public T Foo<T>(T Bar)
{
return default(T);
}
OTHER TIPS
default(T);
Using the default keyword:
T t = default(T)
