How to create a StackOverflowException with multiple lines of code?

Question

How can I create a StackOverflowException with minimal lines of code?

Answer 1

Like this:

 A() { new A(); } 

Answer 2

 throw new StackOverflowException(); 

Cheating, I know ... :)

Answer 3

Not the shortest, but the funniest :)

 public static bool IsNotEmpty(string value) { return !IsEmpty(value); } public static bool IsEmpty(string value) { return !IsNotEmpty(value); } public static void Main() { bool empty = IsEmpty("Hello World"); } 

Answer 4

 public static void Main() { Main(); } 

Answer 5

I always use this code (because it's harder to detect): - (

 private int _num; public int Num { get { return Num; } set { _num = value; } } 

Answer 6

in pseudo code

 func(): call func() 

Answer 7

 public int Method(int i) { return i + Method(i + 1); } 

I think this should work. In general, any recursion that does not end there.

Answer 8

Run this code (recursion):

 f () { f(); }
