Creates a UnaryExpression that represents a conversion operation that throws an exception if the target type is overflowed.

 static System::Linq::Expressions::UnaryExpression ^ ConvertChecked(System::Linq::Expressions::Expression ^ expression, Type ^ type);public static System.Linq.Expressions.UnaryExpression ConvertChecked(System.Linq.Expressions.Expression expression, Type type);static member ConvertChecked : System.Linq.Expressions.Expression * Type -> System.Linq.Expressions.UnaryExpressionPublic Shared Function ConvertChecked (expression As Expression, type As Type) As UnaryExpressionParameters
- expression
- Expression
An Expression to set the Operand property equal to.
Returns
A UnaryExpression that has the NodeType property equal to ConvertChecked and the Operand and Type properties set to the specified values.
Exceptions
expression or type is null.
No conversion operator is defined between expression.Type and type.
Remarks
The Method property of the resulting UnaryExpression is set to the implementing method. The IsLiftedToNull property is false. If the node is lifted, IsLifted is true. Otherwise, it is false.
Implementing Method
The following rules determine the implementing method for the operation:
- If either - expression.Type or- typeis a user-defined type that defines an implicit or explicit conversion operator, the MethodInfo that represents that operator is the implementing method.
- Otherwise: - If both - expression.Type and- typerepresent numeric or Boolean types, or nullable or non-nullable enumeration types, the implementing method is- null.
- If either - expression.Type or- typeis a reference type and an explicit boxing, unboxing, or reference conversion exists from- expression.Type to- type, the implementing method is- null.
 
Lifted versus Non-Lifted
If the implementing method is not null:
- If - expression.Type is assignable to the argument type of the implementing method and the return type of the implementing method is assignable to- type, the node is not lifted.
- If either or both of - expression.Type or- typeare a nullable value type and the corresponding non-nullable value types are equal to the argument type and the return type of the implementing method respectively, the node is lifted.
If the implementing method is null:
- If both - expression.Type and- typeare non-nullable, the node is not lifted.
- Otherwise the node is lifted.

- expression
- Expression
An Expression to set the Operand property equal to.
- method
- MethodInfo
A MethodInfo to set the Method property equal to.
Returns
A UnaryExpression that has the NodeType property equal to ConvertChecked and the Operand, Type, and Method properties set to the specified values.
Exceptions
expression or type is null.
method is not null and the method it represents returns void, is not static (Shared in Visual Basic), or does not take exactly one argument.
No conversion operator is defined between expression.Type and type.
-or-
expression.Type is not assignable to the argument type of the method represented by method.
-or-
The return type of the method represented by method is not assignable to type.
-or-
expression.Type or type is a nullable value type and the corresponding non-nullable value type does not equal the argument type or the return type, respectively, of the method represented by method.
More than one method that matches the method description was found.
Remarks
The Method property of the resulting UnaryExpression is set to the implementing method. The IsLiftedToNull property is false. If the node is lifted, IsLifted is true. Otherwise, it is false.
Implementing Method
The following rules determine the implementing method for the operation:
- If method is not - null, it is the implementing method. It must represent a non-void,- static(- Sharedin Visual Basic) method that takes one argument.
- Otherwise, if either - expression.Type or- typeis a user-defined type that defines an implicit or explicit conversion operator, the MethodInfo that represents that operator is the implementing method.
- Otherwise: - If both - expression.Type and- typerepresent numeric or Boolean types, or nullable or non-nullable enumeration types, the implementing method is- null.
- If either - expression.Type or- typeis a reference type and an explicit boxing, unboxing, or reference conversion exists from- expression.Type to- type, the implementing method is- null.
 
Lifted versus Non-Lifted
If the implementing method is not null:
- If - expression.Type is assignable to the argument type of the implementing method and the return type of the implementing method is assignable to- type, the node is not lifted.
- If either or both of - expression.Type or- typeare a nullable value type and the corresponding non-nullable value types are equal to the argument type and the return type of the implementing method respectively, the node is lifted.
If the implementing method is null:
- If both - expression.Type and- typeare non-nullable, the node is not lifted.
- Otherwise the node is lifted.
