Global user type definition

[Ole]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a type that I can import in any solution and user
control etc so that it can be used the same way as system types (like Int32,
String etc.)?

Thanks,
Ole

Sure - just declare a type in a library assembly (dll), and reference
it from the other projects. Job done. Types that represent small
values "like numbers" are generally structs, and are almost always
immutable. But most user types should be classes. If in doubt, it
should probably be a class. Have I understood correctly?

Yes - you understood exactly what I meant - thanks!

My user type is a class, so theree'll be no problem.

Thanks
Ole
