Develop Reference

Property or indexer must have at least one accessor

I'm learning C#, trying to get to grips with accessors at the moment.
I'm going nuts looking at this, I have no idea what I've done wrong:
class BankAccount
{
// *PROPERTIES*
private int _initialDeposit = 0;
// **ACCESSORS**
public int SavingsAccount
{
set
{
_initialDeposit = value;
}
get
{
return _initialDeposit;
}
}
}
The Form looks like this:
public partial class BankForm : Form
{
private BankAccount _myAccount;
public BankForm()
{
InitializeComponent();
_myAccount = new BankAccount();
}
private void initialDepositButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
_myAccount.SavingsAccount = Convert.ToInt32(initialDepositTextBox.Text);
bankAccountListBox.Text = "Account opened with initial Deposit " + initialDepositTextBox.Text;
}
}
But I get this error:
Property or indexer must have at least one accessor

I'm not getting any errors. Move location of private BankAccount _myAccount;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace BankForm
{
public partial class BankForm : Form
{
public BankForm()
{
InitializeComponent();
_myAccount = new BankAccount();
}
private BankAccount _myAccount;
private void initialDepositButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
_myAccount.SavingsAccount = Convert.ToInt32(initialDepositTextBox.Text);
bankAccountListBox.Text = "Account opened with initial Deposit " + initialDepositTextBox.Text;
}
}
class BankAccount
{
// *PROPERTIES*
private int _initialDeposit = 0;
// **ACCESSORS**
public int SavingsAccount
{
set
{
_initialDeposit = value;
}
get
{
return _initialDeposit;
}
}
}
}

Updating a Control Within a Currently Open Form

I am writing a C# Application where I can add various types of students - a normal student, or a academic society student, or a arts and culture society student. On the main form, I have 3 data grids (one lists academic students, one list arts and culture students, and the other lists the normal students). For the user to specify additional information about a student (should they be an academic society student, or an arts and culture student, or both), another form will open up asking the user to add additional Information.
After the information has been specified, I would like to take that information, and add it to the relevant data grid, in other words, update the data grid in the main form.
How I thought I would tackle this idea:
Create a method in the main form to add a new entry to the data grid
Save the main form object into a Form object
Have a method which will will add a new row of data into the form object mentioned in step 2
Update the currently open main form with the form object I had saved.
I tried doing the above, and I get the error:
Error 1 Inconsistent accessibility: parameter type 'ONT2000_Practical_05.AcademicSocieties' is less accessible than method 'ONT2000_Practical_05.Form1.addAcademicStudentRow(ONT2000_Practical_05.AcademicSocieties)' c:\users\okuhle\documents\visual studio 2013\Projects\ONT2000 Practical 05\ONT2000 Practical 05\Form1.cs 35 21 ONT2000 Practical 05
I have 3 classes - AcademicSocieties, ArtsAndCultureSociety and Student...both AcademicSocieties and ArtsAndCultureSociety inherit the Student class. Below is the code for the classes:

change the access modifier of the class ProgramFunctions,ArtsAndCultureSociety to public.

Could it be you are missing the access modifier 'public' in some of your class definitions? If you don't add public before ArtsAndCultureSociety, it will be private.

Why does a normal class instantiation cause an unhandled overflow exception?

I can't see anything other than an normal class initialized.
Here is the class, class Bet.cs:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace Lab_ADayAtTheRaces
{
public class Bet : Form1
{
public int Bets_Joe;
public int Bets_Bob;
public int Bets_Al;
public int Dog_Joe;
public int Dog_Bob;
public int Dog_Al;
public int Amount;
public int Dog;
public Guy Bettor;
public string GetDescription()
{
Amount = (int)numericUpDownBucksToBet.Value;
Dog = (int)numericUpDownDogToBetOn.Value;
//Bettor =
return Bettor + " placed a bet in the amount of " + Amount + " bucks on dog number " + Dog;
}
public int PayOut(int Winner)
{
return Winner;
}
public void MakeBets()
{
if (joeRadioButton.Checked == true)
{
Bets_Joe = (int)numericUpDownBucksToBet.Value;
Dog_Joe = (int)numericUpDownDogToBetOn.Value;
}
else if (bobRadioButton.Checked == true)
{
Bets_Bob = (int)numericUpDownBucksToBet.Value;
Dog_Bob = (int)numericUpDownDogToBetOn.Value;
}
else if (alRadioButton.Checked == true)
{
Bets_Al = (int)numericUpDownBucksToBet.Value;
Dog_Al = (int)numericUpDownDogToBetOn.Value;
}
}
}
}
Here is the code that throws the exception:
namespace Lab_ADayAtTheRaces
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
Bet bets = new Bet(); //**THIS LINE THROWS THE STACKOVERFLOW EXCEPTION**
Greyhound[] dogs = new Greyhound[3];

Any help is muchly appriciated... thanks in advance

your Bet inherits from Form1, so Bet() will call to Form1(), and Form1() will again call to Bet() inside it -> again and again -> StackOverflow
Tip: We should never call the constructor of a class in its constructor or its class definition like this:
public class Form1 : Form {
public Form1(){
}
public Form1(string s){
}
public Form1 f = new Form1();//this will throw StackOverflowException
public Form1 f = new Form1("");//this will also throw StackOverflowException
//Form2 inherits from Form1
public Form2 f = new Form2(); //this will throw StackOverflowException
}
//or
public class Form1 : Form {
public Form1(){
Form1 f = new Form1();//This will throw stackoverflowexception
Form1 f = new Form1("");//This won't throw any exception
}
public Form1(string s){
}
}
When a class is initialized, all the members are initialized first before calling the constructor, hence the line Bet bets = new Bet(); is executed before initializing your Form1. So you have to avoid it. To initialize new Bet(), you should call it in some event so that the event will never be fired by calling the constructor, such as Load.
Bet bets;//Just declare it without initializing it
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e){
bets = new Bet();
}

Can I pass a List of objects from one Form to another in C#?

I have setup an Class that holds names/Numbers/ect, and created a List of objects to hold them. I want to display them on a second Form in a ListView. Right now I am using a getter like...
public List<Employee> GetEmpList(){
return EmployeeList;
}
Then in the second Form's constructor I am using the Form1.GetEmpList() like...
DisplayForm{
InitializeComponent();
LoadEmployees(EmployeeAddition.GetList());
}
I am getting and error saying "an object reference is required for the nonstatic field". The method I am calling is non-static, and returns a reference to the List in the Form1 class. I have even tried to just make the List public and calling using Form1.List but it still gives me the same error.
Is there a way to pass a List between Form classes or is it impossible?
EDIT: Poeple said that more information was needed. I didn't want to copy paste all the code here, but I am going to put a good chunk just because I am new and not quite sure what is relevant and what is not. (I am taking a class, but remotely, and my teacher is...well a remote teacher, useless. She actually told me to ask here)
I guess I am missing how to instatize a method, I thought that when the object was created from the class the method became part of the object. The Method is part for the Form1 (Renamed but thats what it is) class/object. I will dumb the code under here, I don't know if that is frowned upon; if so I am sorry.

After relooking at the code I think I might see what you are saying about calling it from a static class, not an object. Is there a way to find the name of the Object that the Compiler creates from the first Form?

The first problem you are having is you are treating the GetEmpList() function as an static method. It is not static and probably shouldn't be static. That is why people are saying you need to create an instance of it. However, looking at what you are asking the way you are going about this is probably flawed in a more fundamental way that just creating a new version of the form will solve. The problem is you want to pass model data between forms. Without more information it is really hard to tell how you want this all to go together. However you probably already have an instance of the EmployeeAddition form and don't need to create another instance inside the constructor of your DisplayForm. Instead what you should do is make the LoadEmployees method public and pass the results of GetEmpList() into that.
So your structure would be more like
public class EmployeeAddition : Form {
...
public List<Employee> GetEmpList(){
return EmployeeList;
}
...
public void ShowDisplayForm(){
var displayForm = new DisplayForm();
displayForm.LoadEmployees(GetEmpList());
displayForm.Show();
}
...
}
Of course this structure may be slightly off as I'm guessing at which form will own which form but this is closer to what you want.

try use "new"
DisplayForm{
InitializeComponent();
EmployeeAddition = new EmployeeAdditionClass();
LoadEmployees(EmployeeAddition.GetList());
}

how can I add items to my ListView

I keep getting this error and I know why but I need help figuring out how I can solve it. The only way I have been able to add my items it to make a new form but that seems silly.
It wont work if I make all my methods static =(
I keep getting,

Edit...
Here is the class im calling it from:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

}
catch(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
getscore();
FormMain.AddScore();
}
}
}

The simple solution is to define your methods AddScore and AddToList as non-static.
public void AddScore()
{
//your code
}
public void AddToList(string[] ScoreInfo)
{
// your code
}
If you want to use static methods you should pass the instance of your Form to the method, on which you want to add items to the ListView.
public static void AddScore(FormMain mainForm)
{
//your code
AddToList(mainForm, ScoreInfo);
}
public static void AddToList(FormMain mainForm, string[] ScoreInfo)
{
// your code
}
Update:
According to your updated code the solution is to pass the instance of your FormMain to your FormAddScore when you create it. In FormAddScore you store the reference to the FormMain instance to call the methods on.
public partial class FormAddScore : Form
{
// your code
private FormMain _mainForm;
public FormAddScore(){
InitializeComponent();
}
public FormAddScore(FormMain mainForm) : this(){
_mainForm = mainForm;
}
In your FormMain when you create the instance of FormAddScore you should use the constructor that expects an instance of FormMain
_FormAddScore = new FormAddScore(this);
With this setup you can change your methods to non-static and you can call the methods of FormMain in your FormAddScore, by using the stored reference in variable _mainForm.
_mainForm.AddScore();
