// StaticDl.cs -- Demonstrate using a static delegate without declaring
// an instance of the class.
//
// Compile this program with the following command line:
// C:>csc StaticDl.cs
using System;
namespace nsDelegates

{

//
// Show that the static constructor in another class is shared by instances

clsDelegate dlg1 = new clsDelegate (49);
clsDelegate dlg2 = new clsDelegate (3.14159);
}
