How do know if a class use operator overload?

[Bengan]

Hi!

Where can you see if a class has overloaded operator(like +,-) in Microsofts
NET class library on the net? They list members, properties, fields and
other stuff for a class but no operatoroverloading.

It would be nice to know if a class uses overloaded opetors so you know if
its the default behavior or not when using these operators.

Operators *are* documented, as opGreaterThan, opInequality etc
methods. See DateTime for an example.

But they don't list operators predefined by C# (like int + int). For this
you have to look in the C# reference or specification.

Indeed. For *most* of the operators, this is probably expected. The
one which is most likely to catch people out (IMO) is string
concatenation, which is a C# operator but not a .NET operator. (The C#
compiler can call String.Concat to concatenate multiple strings in one
go, for instance, which couldn't be done by a normal + operator.)
