## 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).
