在类型转换时常会遇到隐式转换和显式转换。那我们自己定义的类型要怎样去定义隐式转换和显式转换？我们来看一段代码

public class Rational
    {
        private Int32 _inner_int = 0;

        public Rational()
        {

        }

        public Rational(Int32 num)
        {
            this._inner_int = num;
        }


        public Int32 ToInt32() { return this._inner_int; }

        // Implicitly constructs and returns a Rational from an Int32 
        public static implicit operator Rational(Int32 num)
        {
            return new Rational(num);
        }

        // Explicitly returns an Int32 from a Rational 
        public static explicit operator Int32(Rational r)
        {
            return r.ToInt32();
        }

        public override string ToString()
        {
            //return base.ToString();
            String s = String.Format("{0}", this._inner_int);
            return s;
        }
    }

  class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Rational r1 = 10;          
            Console.WriteLine(r1);       

            Int32 i = r1;     
            Console.WriteLine(i);       
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }

从提示能够看到，是由于Int32 i=r1时缺少了显式转换。如今我们加入显示转换，改动后的代码及输出结果例如以下：

结果正常输出为10.

那为什么会这样呢？究其原因是在Rational转换成 Int32时，指定了explicit(显式的)，所以必需要指定转换类型Int32。假设将explicit换成implicit(隐式)，原来的代码将能够正常执行。

改动后的Rational

 public class Rational
    {
        private Int32 _inner_int = 0;

        public Rational()
        {

        }

        public Rational(Int32 num)
        {
            this._inner_int = num;
        }


        public Int32 ToInt32() { return this._inner_int; }

        // Implicitly constructs and returns a Rational from an Int32 
        public static implicit operator Rational(Int32 num)
        {
            return new Rational(num);
        }

        // Explicitly returns an Int32 from a Rational 
        public static <span style="color:#ff0000;">implicit</span> operator Int32(Rational r)
        {
            return r.ToInt32();
        }

        public override string ToString()
        {
            //return base.ToString();
            String s = String.Format("{0}", this._inner_int);
            return s;
        }
    }

可见explicit和implicit影响着类型的显式转换和隐式转换。

事实上在Rational r1=10已经运行了隐式转换，相应的转换代码例如以下：

 // Implicitly constructs and returns a Rational from an Int32 
        public static implicit operator Rational(Int32 num)
        {
            return new Rational(num);
        }
