#### Parameters

properties IEnumerable PropertyInfo (Optional)
  Specific properties to target, or null to target all properties.
typeRegistry TypeRegistry (Optional)
  Type registry to use when parsing TValueExpressionAttribute instances, or null to use DefaultTypeRegistry.

#### Type Parameters

TValueExpressionAttribute
  IValueExpressionAttribute parameter type.

#### Return Value

Func T
Generated delegate that will create new T instances with default values applied.

## Remarks

This function is useful for generating a delegate to a compiled function that will create new objects of type T where properties of the type of have been decorated with DefaultValueAttribute or TValueExpressionAttribute attributes. The newly created object will automatically have applied any defined default values as specified by the encountered attributes.

Note

This function will assign evaluated expression values to properties in a newly created model.
