Unassigned variable error while accessing struct member

1 New Member
Hi,
I have a struct in my application.
public struct MyStruct
{
int a;
public int b;
}
As C# says struct members are public by default, but I am not able to access this member in my main method using the object of Struct.
MyStruct s=new MyStruct ();
Console.WriteLi ne(s.a); // This statement gives compile time error

Also if I try to access to the following :
MyStruct s;
Console.WriteLi ne(s.b); // This gives me error like accessing unassigned variable.

Can anyone help me telling what I am missing here. Since we can use struct object without saying "new" to it.

Dear Readers, I am attempting to initialise a struct contiaing a dynamic character string. In the example below I am trying to initialise the name field so that my struct does not waste space. I know if I change char name this will work, but I will waste alot of space.

Our company has been developing a program in C# for some time now, and we haven't had any problems with it, but just last night something cropped up that has me, and everyone else, stumped. I have a struct that contains several different types of data. This struct is used throuout the program. Now, when I compile, I get 6 errors, all of them "Use of possibly unassigned field 'awayTime'" or "Use of possibly unassigned field 'intlTime'"....

I understand that if I don't assign a *local* variable before I use it, the compiler will generate a "Use of unassigned local variable" error. What I don't get is why doesn't the compiler just implicitly assign a default value to my unassigned variable? At this point you are getting ready to reply to me and tell me that this is just a way for the compiler to protect me from introducing a possible bug by preventing me from forgetting to...

In the following (pseudo)code, why is it that C# returns an "unassigned local variable" error for nVar? It seems I have to declare the variable outside foo() for the error to dissapear. void foo() { int nVar = 0; SqlDataReader rdr = objCmd.ExecuteReader();

Use of unassigned local variable 'fs' Please see where I've indicated where the compiler is flagging this error in the method below. fs is initialized in the first line in the try block, so why is it flagged as unassigned in the finally block? Thanks for your help! - Joe Geretz -

In the following example, c# 2.0 compiler says that a3 and ret are used before assigned. as far as I can see, definite assignment is made. If I add finally { ret = true; a3 = "b3";

This is a little tricky, but I think the error I'm getting isn't valid. The compiler just doesn't know my logic. MyObject o; switch (IntVariable) { case 1: o = new MyObject() break;

I understand *why* this produces an error and how to correct it, (add parentheses) but the error itself is a bit eclectic? As I am sure this will arise again, could anyone throw some logic at it. int main (int argc, const char * argv) { struct point { int x; int y;

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
