static property

Thanks man!

 

Question answered. Have a good weekend!

Cool, Jan!

 

I have tested each time counter will increase.Good sample.My further questions,

1. static property is just like two static methods (get/set), which could only access static members?

2. static property could access only static members, but non-static property could access both static and non-static members.

Both of them are correct?

Perhaps, we want to control how a static member is modified, so we introduce a static propoery or method?

Take a look at this example using static property. Try to debug Test1()

namespace WindowsApplication8
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Test1();
        }

        private void Test1()
        {
            StaticProperty sp1 = new StaticProperty();
            StaticProperty.StaticIncrementCount();   //check sp1.count & sp2.count
           
            StaticProperty sp2 = new StaticProperty();
            StaticProperty.StaticIncrementCount();   //check sp1.count & sp2.count

            sp1.IncrementCount();   //check sp1.count & sp2.count

            StaticProperty.StaticIncrementCount();  //check sp1.count & sp2.count

            sp2.IncrementCount();   //check sp1.count & sp2.count
        }
    }

    class StaticProperty
    {
        private static int count = 0;

        public static int Count
        {
            get { return count; }
            //set { count = value; }
        }

        public static int StaticIncrementCount()
        {
            return ++count;
        }

        public int ReturnCount()
        {
            return count;
        }

        public int IncrementCount()
        {
            return ++count;
        }
    }
}
