Q: property problem (enum)

[dllhell]

hi all,

I want to create a property in class (datatype=enum).
In one other class I have declaration of enum:

public enum enumCrep

{

cRep1 = 1,

cRep2 = 2,

}



now, I want to create a property:

public enumCrep ecRep

{

get { return this.ecRep;}

set {this.ecRep = value;}

}



at the moment of asignig a value to this propery its raises error:

{Cannot evaluate expression because the current thread is in a stack
overflow state.}



thanks for help in advance

Hi,

You need a member variable to hold the value of the enum

eg
protected enumCrep mecRep

public enumCrep ecRep
{

get { return mecRep;}

set {mecRep = value;}
}

Your code goes into recursion (i.e. you are setting property which is
in-turn calling the code which sets it again)

Youre property is referencing itself, which causes a stack overflow due to
infinte recursion. Try:

private enumCrep _ecRep;
public enumCrep ecRep
{
get { return _ecRep;}
set {_ecRep = value;}
}
