using a global variable set by master page

[Davids]

I am not having any success, in my master.cs page I assign a variable to be
used within all other pages:

public partial class MP_master
{
public string MyString = "this string is global";
}

well accessing it from other pages brings a "CS0103: The name 'MyString'
does not exist in the current context
" error?

"Davids" <db****@simnet.is> a écrit dans le message de news:
d0**********@news.simnet.is...

found it...
what I forgot to do was to instantiate an inherited masterpage class:

You don't have to instantiate a class to create a 'global' variable; simply
use a static string field instead of an instance field.

public partial class MP_master
{
public static string MyString = "this string is global";
}

Then to use it you refer to :

MP_Master.MyString
