Question

public class Class1
    {
        public Class1()
        {
            prop = new Class2();
        }
        public Class2 prop { get; set; }

        public class Class2
        {
            public Class2()
            {
                this.prop2 = "nikola";
            }

            public string prop2 { get { return prop2; } set { prop2 = EditString(value); } }

            public string EditString(string str)
            {
                str += " plavsic";
                return str;
            }
        }
    }

this is my code that i have problem with. When i try to initialise object that is type of Class1 it throws an StackOverflowException error. what am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

Prop2 sets/returns Prop2… which calls Prop2 to get/set the value of Prop2, which calls Prop2… see where this is headed?

That keeps happening until the computer/runtime runs out of space to store the call stack, and dies.
