Ranjit Powar · Answer

I don't think so there is any other option to solve this.

Danish Habib · Answer

Ranjit Powar your solution is working  i was just asking about that  is there any other way to make your first class a base class and then by using the base keyword you can access the public members  whatever you wrote is working fine . Thanks

You were asked whether you can access public methods and properties without Inheritance which of-course you can do by making an object of that class. That way Inheritance would be out of the picture.

Public class Admin { pulic int age{get;set;} public string greeting () { return Hi Manas How are you and whats going on; } } public class two { public int marks{get;set'} public void drive (){ //do something } public string method1() { Admin admin=new Admin(); return admin. greeting (); } } public static void main [string args[]) { two t1=new two(); t1.method1(); }

Dear Vipul Malhotra yesterday i met with a meeting and there that question has raised how to get access to public methods and properties of a class from another class without inheritance  I think .NET framework support that kind of sceniro or not i am not sure.

Vipul Malhotra · Answer

Hi Danish No you would not be able to use it in the way you have suggested. The reason is quite simple. When you write : Admin A1=new Admin(); Two t2=(Two)A1; For compiler the classes Admin and two are entirely different in a way that they don't have any sort of relation with each other. You would have to explicitly tell the .net compiler that the 2 classes are related and so the object of one can be casted into the another. This can be done using INHERITANCE. public class two : Admin Please let me know what exactly is the issue or shortcomings you are facing while using inheritance (if any) Hope it helped. Thanks

If you do not want Inheritance then you can create instance of first class and call the method. Class1 cc = new Class1(); cc.method1();
