Question

I have a form (form1) that has a text field (textBox1)
I have a class that has the method “public static string getValue()”

how I can read the value of the textBox1 within the method getValue() ??

here is my code

namespace MyProgram
{
    public partial class Form1: Form
    {
      ---------------------------------
      ---------------------------------
      ---------------------------------
    }
}

the other class

namespace MyProgram
{
    class values
    {

        public static string getValues()
        {

            string v;
            v = ------get value from textBox1 in Form1
            return v;
        }

    }
}

the whol software is build in this structure, so I hope there is some standard way in C# to get these values in the method getValue()

Answer 1

You have to instantiate new object of Form1 and get the value. Or else add a delegate in form1 and call it from getValue, such that the return value of delegate should be the textbox value.
