Hello You should do like this : class Program { readonly bool flag ; Program() { flag = true ; } static void Main( string [] args) { Program p = new Program(); Console.WriteLine(p.flag); Console.ReadKey(); } } Explaination : There is two possibility to define value to readonly property : 1 . You can directly define when declaration like : readonly bool flag = false ; 2 . Define value with constructor : Program() { flag = true ; } I hope it helps Thanks
