Sharing objects across forms and other objects

[Evan]

Hi,

What is the best method to share objects (such as a SqlConnection)
across many forms. I am currently passing the SqlConnection in to
other forms from the main form through the other forms' constructor.
This is becoming cumbersome when dealing with dozens of forms. What
are the alternatives?

Thanks in advance,
Evan

Set the connection as static, and access it using the
type.

Hi evan,

You can create a class with static members for these escenario, you could
also use a singleton for this.

Cheers,
