Question

Below is my code.

    public String content;
    public int count;
    public int fee;
    public int amount;
    public string descript         


        

Answer 1

The problem is that you cannot have optional parameters in C# version less than 4.
You can find more information on this here.

You can solve it like this:

public class PItem
{
  public String content;
  public int count;
  public int fee;
  public int amount;
  public String description;
  // default values
  public PItem(): this("", 0, 0, "", 0) {}
  public PItem(String _content): this (_content, 0, 0, "", 0) {}
  public PItem(String _content, int _count): this(_content, _count, 0, "", 0) {}
  public PItem(String _content, int _count, int _fee): this(_content, _count, _fee, "", 0) {}
  public PItem(String _content, int _count, int _fee, string _description): this(_content, _count, _fee, _description, 0) {}
  public PItem(String _content, int _count, int _fee, string _description, int _amount)
  {
      content = _content;
      count = _count < 0 ? 0 : _count;
      fee = _fee;
      description = _description;
      amount = _amount < 0 ? 0 : _amount;
  }
}
