c#7 ?

zespri · April 2017

Release notes say that c# 7 is fully supported. The following snippet works in VS2017 but does not work in LinqPad5:

class Test
{  
	(string, string, string) MyTest(long id)
	{
		return ("a", "b", "c"); // tuple literal
	}
}

LinqPad complains:

CS1518: Invalid token '(' in class, struct, or interface member declaration.

What am I doing wrong?

For C# 7 support, you need to download v5.22:

This build is currently in release candidate phase and is likely to RTM this week.

Right, thank you. Yes I now noticed that it's working in beta, but the fact that the release notes for the Release said "full support" confused me. Thank you for getting back to me.

c#7 ?
