## When clause
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with C# 7.0 you can use `when` clause to specify additional condition that must be satisfied. When clause is optional and is used right after specific case.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```csharp
|
||||||
|
Dog dog = new Dog
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
Name = "Charlie",
|
||||||
|
Breed = "Affenpinscher",
|
||||||
|
Age = 3
|
||||||
|
};
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
switch (dog)
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Affenpinscher" && d.Age >= 6:
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered a senior dog.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Affenpinscher" && d.Age >= 2:
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered an adult dog.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Affenpinscher":
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered a puppy.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Chihuahua" && d.Age >= 4:
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered a senior dog.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Chihuahua" && d.Age >= 2:
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered an adult dog.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
case Dog d when d.Breed == "Chihuahua":
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"{dog.Name} is considered a puppy.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
default:
|
||||||
|
Console.WriteLine($"We have no information according {dog.Breed} breed.");
|
||||||
|
break;
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
As you see in the above example after `when` keyword you should specify logical condition (an instruction that returns bool value).
