Re: How to access this static variable

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

First, have you looked at localization capabilities offered by the.NET
framework ?

If you want to access those members through an instance variable, why making
them static ? (I'm not sure but I see nowhere that you would really declare
them static on purpose ?).
Another option is to make them static but to have a single class and provide
the language they should provide. Remember that being a static member you
can stuff whatever you want (ie. your labels could come from any data
structure filled with strings for each supported language).

Or drop the static keyword and have your classes inherits and overrides your
default language class (could be abstract or an interface to make sure you
provide the appropriate text for each class).

For now it llklks like the code would direct to choose a design while you
choosed anothe design for the declarations. You have to match both aspects
(and have a llok at localization features if not already done).

I am trying to make a language file and put all Static variables into each
different cs.
For example:


Class english : language{
public static string TEST = "test";
}

Class chinese : language {
public static string TEST = "´ú¸Õ";
}

Class language {}




and now i wanna access the TEST variable, but according to which language
is being selected ..

and I expected the following and something like that...

Language myLanguage = new english();
myLanguage.TEST // output will be "test"

Language myLanguage = new chinese();
myLanguage.TEST // output will be "´ú¸Õ"


Thank you very much.

You may want to explain what you are trying to do so that we can
understand why not using A.ABC is not something that fit your needs and
why accessing static members through an instance member would make sense.
It could raise alternate approach to the problem you are trying to
solve..

But there are not only 1 static variable in Class A, .... i don't wanna
make every function for each static variable

Class B { public B() {} }

Class A : B {
public static string ABC = "myABC";
public A() {}
}
main Program:

B myObject = new A();

and now is it possible to access "ABC" through "myObject" without
modifying the source code in Class A and Class B.

Thanks



As it's a static variable (in type A), you can only access it through
the Type A:
A.ABC, not through an instance.

Type B doesn't know anything about things declared in derived types
(like A),
so your myObject (which is "just a B") doesn't know anything about that
ABC.

*if* B declares a (virtual) method:
public virtual string MyMethod() { return "nil"; }
and A overrides it:
public override string MyMethod() { return A.ABC; }
then your myObject can still access the contents of ABC, using this
MyMethod()
