Question

As I have already done, I have this piece of code:

 private string opt;// create a property
        public string optionInterval
        {
            get
            {
                return opt;
            }
            set
            {
                opt = value;
            }
        }

How can I change the opt to an integer?
Especially in the set part?

Answer 1

public int optionInterval { get; set; }

Using Auto-Implemented Properties

Here’s a working version of GianT971’s answer:

    private int opt; 
    public string optionInterval
    {
        get
        {
            return opt.ToString();
        }
        set
        {
            opt = Convert.ToInt32(value);
        }
    }
