How to declare static property of a static type?-CodePudding

I want to declare sort of a configuration class. I want to access the properties as Config.Params1.Prop1. I get cannot declare a variable of static type when I use the code below. I understand why I get the error, but how do I declare the classes to get what I want?

public static class Config
{
    public static Section1 Params1;
}

public static class Section1
{
    public static string Prop1 => "...";
    public static string Prop2 => "...";
}

CodePudding user response：

You cannot do, it because Params1 is an object, not a class. But You can do this.

public static class Config
{
    public static Section1 Params1;
}

public class Section1
{
    public string Prop1 => "...";
    public  string Prop2 => "...";
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{

    Config.Params1 = new Section1();
    var temp = Config.Params1.Prop1;

Or this, with your existing solution.

var temp = Section1.Prop1;

Or if you want to access like Config.Section1.Prop1 then you can simply do this.

namespace Config
{
    public static class Section1
    {
        public static string Prop1 => "...";
        public static string Prop2 => "...";
    }

You can also make the class Params1 inside the Config class.

public static class Config
{
    public static class Params1
    {
        public static string Prop1 => "...";
        public static string Prop2 => "...";
    }
}

Make your class nested:

public static class Config
{

    public static class Params1    
    {
        public static string Prop1 => "...";
        public static string Prop2 => "...";
    }
}

you need to rename Section1 to Params1 for full effect.
