Setting a tuple causes stackoverflow error. How to Set a tuple property?-CodePudding

This is my first time working with tuples, and I created a tuple propery.

public (float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY) BoundsTuple
{
    private get => BoundsTuple;
    set 
    { 
        BoundsTuple = value;
    }

}

// BoundsTuple = value; causes stackoverflow error

This is my Unity console error:

StackOverflowException: The requested operation caused a stack overflow. Clump.set_BoundsTuple (System.ValueTuple`4[T1,T2,T3,T4] value) (at Assets/Scripts/EverythingClouds/Clump.cs:17)

How can I fix this?

Not to get a stackoverflow while setting the tuple property

CodePudding user response：

Milan's answer: You’re setting the value of your property, a cyclic operation. Try public (float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY) BoundsTuple { get; set; } instead.

CodePudding user response：

This is not about a tuple this is about properties in general.

Both the getter and setter or your property BoundsTuple refer to the very same BoundsTuple property again.

You will either convert this to an auto-property

public (float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY) BoundsTuple { get; set; }

or introduce a backing field

privte (float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY) _boundsTuple;
public (float minX, float maxX, float minY, float maxY) BoundsTuple
{
    get => _boundsTuple;
    set => _boundsTuple= value;
}
