How to Call Public Variable/Method From One Class To MainForm.Cs?

Anonymous User 1958 27 Oct 2014

I am trying to call:

public double lose;

public void LoseWeight()

{

lose = weight - 400;

}

to

listBox.Items.Add("calories : " + lose); //on MainForm.cs

But for some reason, I'm getting error: The name "lose" does not exist in the current context.

I thought all public variables and methods can be shared.

Is there a special rule for getting things from class -> MainForm?

hi
you shuld declare a variable of the class your lose variable in first, like

class LoseClass
{
   public double lose;
   //...
}

in file MainForm.cs

LoseClass loseClass = new LoseClass();
listBox.Items.Add("calories" + loseClass.lose);
