No – you only have to have one
Mainmethod. Indeed, if you have more than one staticMainmethod in a class, I don’t believe you can specify that class as an entry point.It does have to be static though; the class can’t be generic and neither can the method. It can be:
intstring[]It has to be static and non-generic as otherwise the CLR would have to create an instance of the class or work out what type parameter you wanted, respectively. It doesn’t have enough information to make either of those decisions – but it doesn’t need any information for a static non-generic method in a non-generic class.
