Question

class Log
{
 public int LocationId { set { value = 1; } get; }
}

Will this set the default value for Log as 1 when i use like this: Log
l=new log(); Console.Writeline(l.LocationId);

?

I am aware of the normal way of using a property but will this also work?

Answer 1

The proper way to do it is in the constructor:

class Log {
    public Log() {
        LocationId = 1;
    }

    public int LocationId { set; get; }
}
