The type or namespace name 'MyClass' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an ass

[carqs123]

What is the procedure for using a class defined in the same solution
but in another project?
The language I am using is c-sharp.

I have a solution with two projects in it. A c-sharp program in
project1 uses MyClass, which is defined in project2. In the solution
properties I set project1 to depend on project2.

I keep getting the "type or namespace name 'MyClass' could not be
found" error.

I defined a namespace in project2 and made sure MyClass was encompassed
by this namespace. Then I put the "using namespace" statement in the
project1 program.
This did not help.

Any suggestions?

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to say here, but I think your
answer is to add a reference to the other project. Fully qualifying
your
calls to the secondary namespace class (i.e. Namespace2.MyClass2)
wouldn't hurt either

Right. How does one do that?

I tried using Namespace2.MyClass2 in using statement and variable
definitions.
I get... "type or namespace Namespace2 could not be found..."

How does one "add a reference" ?

In the solution explorer view, you will see a list of references. Right
click on it
and you'll see "add". Just use that. The references are near the top,
right below
the solution name.

OK OK, figured it out. Right mouse click on the references folder in
the solutions explorer. Add Reference. Thank you.
