I'd like to know how to pass, let's say an integer, from form1 to form2.
I tried to do that through a button that would open form2, but the event button click didn't recognize the integer... What should I do?
In form1 I have integer x, and I want that when I click on button1, form2 would open up with x value in a label.
If there's a way to pass the info without the button (then I could use the button just to open form2) that would be great as well.
you can use second form constructor.
private int input;
public Form2(int input)
{
this.input = input;
InitializeComponent();
}
when you create an object , you can pass your var(int in here):
int myvar=911;
Form2 tmp = new Form2(myvar);
tmp.Show();
now you can use that private variable in form2:
lbl.Text=input.toString();
in Form1:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form2 tmp = new Form2(911);
tmp.Show();
}
and in Form2:
public Form2(int input)
{
InitializeComponent();
label1.Text = input.ToString();
}
send your code for solve this problem.i can't find out why it doesn't recognize your vars without your codes!
In your code have a variable accessible by both forms. For example create a new Namespace and add a public static class FormData with a public static int Value inside.
namespace GlobalVariables
{
public static class FormData
{
public static int Value { get; set; }
}
}
Then from both of your forms you can access the said variable (and modify it) with GlobalVariables.FormData.Value. Here I made it a property, but you can do pretty much whatever you want with it.
Alternatively to passing the value by Form2 constructor, you can create a property that sets the label value, e.g.
Form2
public partial class Form2 : Form
{
public Form2()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public int XValue{
set{
label1.Text = value.ToString();
}
}
}
Form1
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
private int x = 10;
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form2 form2 = new Form2();
form2.XValue = x;
form2.Show();
}
}
new Form2(){XValue = x}.Show();
