Besides the fact that you appear to be using "struct" in an odd way....
The error message you're receiving is correct. ms.PartNo is a string,
but the constructor for MutTransform accepts a MutStruct, not a string.
You should make one of two changes. Either:
MutTransform mt = new MutTransform(ms);
or, down in MutTransform:
internal struct MutTransform
{
internal string PartNumber;
internal MutTransform(string partNo)
{
this.PartNumber = partNo.PadLeft(10, 'y');
}
}
One or the other. By the way, what's the point of wrapping a string in
a struct? Or is this is a pared-down version of what's really going
on...?
