C# Run Error

Matt

Hey guys,

I have got this error when trying to run a set of code. I'm not really sure what it means or what to do. Can anybody give me a rough idea?

A project with an Ouput Type of Class Library cannot be started directly.

In order to debug this project, add an executable project to this solution which references the library project. Set the executable prokect as the startup project.

Thanks guys,

SMEG

Well, according to the message you have tried to execute a class library. Class libraries are not executable. You will need to add another application such as a Windows Form application and reference and use your class library in that application in order to see it running. If you have an application that is executable, you need to set it as the default project so that it will execute that instead of trying to execute the class library.
