Shorthand for initializing members in class constructor

Question

Let's say I have a class with many members like this

class someclass
{
    public int number {get;set;}   //repeated a dozen times, with different names of course
}

it's constructor should look like this

public someclass(int number, ...,)
{
    this.number=number;        //repeated again a dozen times
}

is there any shorthand notation to avoid the repetition in the constructor?

Answer 1

You could use an object initializer:

var myInstance = new MyClass
                 {
                    Number = 42,
                    Foo = "Bar"
                 };
