Question

I have abstract class

public abstract class MemFactory 
{
    public abstract bool test();

    public virtual string getMember()
    {
        string validMember = "test"; 
        return validMember;
    }
}

I have inherited the same in another child class

public class MemberFactory : MemFactory
{
 private static readonly MemberFactory instance = new MemberFactory();

 static MemberFactory() { }

  public static MemberFactory Current
  {
        get { return instance;}
  }

 public static string getMember()
 {
     return MemberFactory.Current.getMember();
 }
}

When i am accessing the base class method its giving me

“static member cannot be accessed with an instance reference; qualify
it with a type name instead”

Can anyone help?

Answer 1

I got the answer. static method name should be different.

public static string getMem()
        {
            return MemberFactory.Current.getMember();
}

This will fix the issue. Thank god.
