One solution, 2 projects and one problem

[Guest]

Hi

In one solution I have 2 projects. One project is containing the windows
form and the other conatins a public class returning a string... "Greetings
from Norway "

How can I show the "greetings from Norway " string in the solution with
the form...?

Any tip/trick or help appreciates.

Best regard

In your project with the form, add a reference to the project with the
string. If the string is a static public member of the second project,
then after adding the reference to the first project, you should be
able to just use the fully qualified name in the form.

//in the second project
public static string Greetings = "Hello from Norway.";

//in the first project (which has a reference to the second project)
namespace WindowsApplication80
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();

this.Text = WindowsApplication81.Form1.Greetings;
}
}
}

Add a reference from the UI project to the other project. In the form,
create an instance of the class (assuming it's an instance method that
returns the string) and then call the method.

Thank you Jon!
In the project containing the form I've added a references to the "greeting"
project. It work just fine. But...

If the "greeting" changes. Do I need to re-add a reference or How do I renew
the reference?

Just rebuild and it'll pick up the changes.
