One Question

[SuperNewbie]

hello, guys:
this is the code:

// created on 5.7.2002 at 10:47
using System;
public class Test
{

public struct Car
{
public int year;

}


Car mycar = new Car();

public static void Main()
{

Console.WriteLine(mycar.year);

}

public void mytest()
{
Console.WriteLine(mycar.year);

}


}

and I got such error: An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property 'Test.mycar'

So I have to declare another Car mycar = new Car();
in static void Main() function to solve this problem,

so is there any way so that I declare Car mycar = new Car();
once and use it in both functions: void main() and void mytest().

Thank you!!

Your Main is a static method. It can therefore only access other static data. your Car variable is a member of your test class. No instance of your class is created, so no Car variable exists.

If you need only this one car variable, make it static, too. If you really need one car variable per test class, you have to find some other solution.

btw.: Who will call the testfunction ? If Main does it, it has to be static, too.

I just made a the class Test reference in Main() like

public static void Main()
{
Test test2 = new Test();
//then I call the testfunction:
test2.mytest();



}

so mytest() function is not static,but it wroks.

ok, now you have an instance of your class and you can access it's methods and members
