Create a new NSExpression

Question

How can i create a NSExpression with a constant value for using with the PredicateEditor.

for Example:

the leftExpression should be a string "state", the rightExpression should be as string "Germany"

i've tried:

NSExpression left = new NSExpression(NSExpressionType.ConstantValue);
left.SetValueForKey(new NSString("state"), new NSString("Germany"));

but this does not work. The Programm stops without error!

Answer 1

Use the static method NSExpression NSExpression.FromConstant(NSObject):

var left = NSExpression.FromConstant((NSString)"Germany");

Answer 2

You miss to throw the generated Exception with:

throw left;
