propertys

[PT Exorcist]

how do i make something like a Size property? when u put this.Size. then u'll get another property for width and height...how do i do that?

[kovan]

make a object like

public class Blah
{
   public Blah();
   public  size Size() = new size();
}

public class size
{
   public size();
   public int width;
   public int height;
}

now make a blah object, and set the size properities
u can do this with structs, classes and otehr different ways..
the code might not work.. but u get the idea

[PT Exorcist]

but that way it would appear as class and it appears as property!

[kovan]

instead of int height, widht, as member variables
make them properities
and when u modify blah object, the blah object modifies class size properties..

i guess u would need to have properties in both to do this
if i am not making any sense jsut tell me to shut up cus its 8 in the morning and i havent gotten any sleep so i might be taking out of my arse

[PT Exorcist]

HAHA thats ok LOL

[kovan]

here u go a workign copy (dont ask me how i created this at 8 in the morning..) but it works

using System;

namespace CSharptDummy
{
	/// <summary>
	/// Summary description for myObject.
	/// </summary>
	public class myObject
	{
		public myObject()
		{
			//
			// TODO: Add constructor logic here
			//
		}
		public size Size = new size();

		public int width
		{
		
			get
			{
				return Size.width;
			}
			set
			{
				Size.width = value;
			}
		}
		public int height
		{
		
			get
			{
				return Size.height;
			}
			set
			{
				Size.height = value;
			}
		}
	}

	public class size
	{
		public size()
		{
		
		}
		private int m_width = 0;
		private int m_height = 0;
		public int width
		{
		
			get
			{
				return m_width;
			}
			set
			{
				m_width = value;
			}
		}
		public int height
		{
		
			get
			{
				return m_height;
			}
			set
			{
				m_height = value;
			}
		}
	}
}

CALL

			 myObject obj = new myObject();
			obj.Size.height = 2;
			MessageBox.Show(obj.Size.height.ToString());

to improve this little more..

u can do something cooler and make the properties of myObject to be an size object instead of an int..
the functionality u can add this to or change it aorund is limiteless.. go crazy with it but the basic idea is there i think

[PT Exorcist]

hmm..worked ok but the problem is that it shows it as a cyan box...any way that it appears as a property field like some propertys with things inside in .NET do?

[DevGrp]

Try this. I changed a few things.

using System;

namespace TestCSharp
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for myObject.
    /// </summary>
    public class myObject
    {
        private size _Size;
        public myObject()
        {
            //
            // TODO: Add constructor logic here
            //
             _Size = new size();
        }
        
        public size Size
        {
            get
            {
                return this._Size;
            }
            set
            {
                this._Size = value;
            }
        }
    }

    public class size
    {
        public size()
        {
        
        }
        private int m_width = 0;
        private int m_height = 0;
        public int width
        {
        
            get
            {
                return m_width;
            }
            set
            {
                m_width = value;
            }
        }
        public int height
        {
        
            get
            {
                return m_height;
            }
            set
            {
                m_height = value;
            }
        }
    }
}

ah tks worksssssss weee

[PT Exorcist]

is there a way that the size class is invisible to the rest of the application and only the myObject can be seen?

[Lethal]

Nest the size class within the myObject class and make it private.

[PT Exorcist]

it gives a gay error:

C:\Documents and Settings\JBRANCO\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\ConsoleApplication6\Class1.cs(48): Inconsistent accessibility: property type 'ConsoleApplication6.myObject.size' is less accessible than property 'ConsoleApplication6.myObject.Size'
