Question

I’m trying to make something similar to ASP.NET’s User.Identity.Name. I’ve already made the class to hold the information but I don’t know how to write to the variable since I only added the get{};

private static string _firstName; 
public static string FirstName 
{ 
    get { return _firstName; } 
} 

Answer 1

There are 2 ways to do this. The first way is adding a private setter.

private static string _firstName; 
public static string FirstName 
{ 
    get { return _firstName; }
    private set { _firstName = value; }
} 

The other option is add a parameter to your constructor and set the value inside it.

public YourClass(string firstName)
{
    _firstName = firstName;
}
