// Members.cs -- Demonstrates access to static and non-static members
//
// Compile this program using the following command line:
// C:>csc Members.cs
//
namespace nsMembers
{
using System;
public class StaticMembers
{
static public void Main ()
{
// Access a static member using the class name.
// You may access a static
// member without creating an instance of the class
Console.WriteLine ("The static member is pi: " + clsClass.pi);
// To access a non-static member, you must create an instance
// of the class
clsClass instance = new clsClass();
// Access a static member using the name of the variable
// containing the
// instance reference
Console.WriteLine ("The instance member is e: " + instance.e);
}
}
class clsClass
{
// Declare a static field. You also could use the const
// keyword instead of static
static public double pi = 3.14159;
// Declare a normal member, which will be created when you
// declare an instance
// of the class
public double e = 2.71828;
}
}
