When the class is instantiated and its ToString method is called, it displays its type name.

It defines a class named Automobile that has no implementation. The following example illustrates the default ToString method. Default formatting using the ToString methodД®very type that is derived from System.Object automatically inherits a parameterless ToString method, which returns the name of the type by default. The following sections examine these methods for converting an object to its string representation. For more information, see the Custom Formatting with ICustomFormatter section. Implementing ICustomFormatter and IFormatProvider to provide a complete custom formatting solution. For more information, see String interpolation. Using string interpolation, a more readable syntax to embed the string representation of a value in a larger string. For more information, see the Composite Formatting section. Using composite formatting to embed the string representation of a value in a larger string. For more information, see the IFormattable Interface section. Implementing the IFormattable interface to support both string conversion with the Convert class and composite formatting. ' The example displays the following output:ДЇor more information about formatting with format providers, see the Format Providers section. The example displays the following output:Д¬onsole.WriteLine(cost.ToString('C', New ('en-US'))) For example, the following statement displays a currency value by using the formatting conventions of the en-US culture. Using format providers to implement the formatting conventions of a specific culture. int integerValue = 60312 Д¬onsole.WriteLine(integerValue.ToString('X')) // Displays EB98.Д¬onsole.WriteLine(integerValue.ToString('X')) ' Displays EB98.ДЇor more information about format specifiers, see the ToString Method and Format Strings section. For example, the 'X' format specifier in the following statement converts an integer to the string representation of a hexadecimal value.

For more information, see the Override the ToString Method section later in this topic.Дefining format specifiers that enable the string representation of an object's value to take multiple forms. Overriding the Object.ToString method to define a custom string representation of an object's value. NET provides several ways to modify and extend its default formatting support. The basic mechanism for formatting is the default implementation of the Object.ToString method, which is discussed in the Default Formatting Using the ToString Method section later in this topic. For information about serialization and deserialization, see Serialization in. For more information, see Parsing Strings. A parsing operation creates an instance of a data type from its string representation.
