The Link Operator Style

Link Operator style is used to link an operator name to the topic describing that operator.

For this style, link text must consist of an operator name followed by the word Operator or Conversion defining the kind of the operator. The operator name must exactly correspond to the operator name in the title of the topic describing the operator.

To create a link using this style, select the link text and press Link Operator  on the Doc-To-Help Documenter for .NET toolbar.

By default, Doc-To-Help applies the nested type separator substitution to the link text, if applicable, see Special Characters in Link Text. It also removes the name of the type containing the operator, if the type name is present. You can change this behavior by using the special characters, exclamation sign and parenthesis. See Special Characters in Link Text. You can also use the argument list for operator overloads, see Argument List in Links.

The following table demonstrates the usage of the Link Operator style for regular operators:
