I need some quick advice.
I just need to reference a containing class from the nested class. I'm
familiar with Java but C# is proving tricky.

public BigClass {

   public int ID_BigClass = -99;

   public MiniClass{
     public void MiniFunc(){
       //How do i get ID_BigClass?
       int intBigClassID = {Reference to instance og Big Class}
     }
   }
        
}

Thanks
