Hi to all,

I would like to have method like .ToString()

say int i=100;

if i.ToCustomInt();
then out put of "i" should show 105(i+some constant value(5) then out put would be 105);

i tried to have sealed class and static method "ToCustomInt()".
wondering how to get that "i" value inside of the static method..

is there any suggestion please.

I gree with Om Prakash Pant, this is a job for an extension method.

Here is an example

C#

public static class IntExtensions
{
    public static int ToCustomInt(this Int32 i)
    {
        return i + 5;
    }
}
