Question

I have 2 classes which share 9 of the 10 properties. I was trying to do what you see below but getting gc does not exist in current context. I was wondering if there is

     if (methodId == 2)
     {
         var gc = new LblPremium(id);

     }
     else
     {
         var gc = new LblIsoReport(id);
     }

     gc.Nbr = Nbr;

    if (method == 2) { gc.Location = "Location Identification: " + pvtData.Location; }
            ..
            ..

Answer 1

Try:

var gc = (methodId == 2)? (LblBase)new LblPremium(id) : (LblBase)new LblIsoReport(id);

where LblBase is the base class of LblPremium and LblIsoReport.
