Im a new programmer and have a book (SAMS) learn C# in 24 hours.
in making a simple sample prograam, I keep getting the same error - in fact same error for all three chunk of code: error is as follows:
Error 1 Expected class, delegate, enum, interface, or struct
i get this error when trying to create a method - here is short bkgrnd - I am using ORCA version of C# so the book may be a little diff than actual program .. but the book keeps saying to set the Main() entry point to the name of the project - but the name of the project is already there - so im thinking that because of these small differences - there is something im overlookning to make the code work properly -
here is the code that prompts the error:
public
static void DrawEllipse(System.Windows.Forms.Form frn)
{
System.Drawing.Graphics objGraphics;
System.Drawing.Rectangle recDrawRectangle;
recDrawRectangle = frm.DisplayRectangle;
recDrawRectangle.Inflate(-5, -5);
objGraphics = frm.CreateGraphics();
objGraphics.Clear(System.Drawing.SystemColors.Control);
objGraphics.DrawEllipse(System.Drawing.Pens.Blue,recDrawRectangle);
objGraphics.Dispose();
}
thank you very much in advance,
J
