Accessing Form Components from another class(namespace)
-
Hi all, I would like to know whether it is possible to access form components from a class which is in another namespace. If not why did they decide to develop C# like that? Many Thanks in advance Regards,

Thanks you for the reply Pete. Is it possible that you could perhaps give me an example or a link of which you may know where I can see such an occurance? Many thanks in advance Regards,

Hmmm.
namespace MyNamespace1
{
public partial class MyForm : Form
{
MyForm()
{
....
}
public string MyValue{ get ; set; }
}
}namespace MyNamespace2
{
public partial class MyForm2 : Form
{
private MyNamespace1.MyForm _form
public MyForm2()
{
_form = new MyNamespace1.MyForm();
_form.MyValue = "Weyhey.";
}}

Any time that you are accessing something from the base class library, you are accessing code that lives in another namespace. For an explicit example, create a console application and observe the default namespace assigned to your code. Now, add a call to
Console.WriteLineand output some text. If you place your mouse pointer over the wordConsole, you'll notice that it is a class defined in theSystemnamespace. Thus, you have just accessed a class defined in another namespace. I get the feeling, however, that this is not the question that you meant to ask. You may wish to try rephrasing so that your intended question is a bit more clear. Hope that helps. :)--Jesse

Hmmm ... So The code below will create a new instance of the first form, right? Now wouldn't that throw away any data / text that would remain on the first form?
... private MyNamespace1.MyForm _form public MyForm2() { _form = new MyNamespace1.MyForm(); _form.MyValue = "Weyhey."; } ...

I just showed you how to access a form in a different namespace. How you want to handle it is up to you.

Hi, every time you execute
new something()you create something new. creating a Form is not the same as showing a Form; your new Form would be invisible until you do something to it, such as _form.Show(). creating or showing a Form does not alter any other Form. :)Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles]
