Question

I want to have a constant string kURL = "http://www.myurl.com/"; throughout my entire project. What’s the proper way to do this in a Windows Phone 7 app?

Where would I put this code and what should the proper syntax be?

Answer 1

Create a .Common project for things that you may need to access from all of your projects in your solution (like constants, extension methods, utils etc.), in there simply create Constants class with any Constants that you may need.

Like this:

public static class Constants
{
    #region Nested type: Urls

    public static class Urls
    {
        public static readonly string MyUrl = "http://blablabla.com";
    }

    #endregion

}

Usage would be:

Constants.Urls.MyUrl

Good luck.

Edit Note: Changed to const as per Gabes suggestion

Edit Note2: Changed to static readonly per lukas suggestion
