Supress error/warning of winapi in class?

I have this error:
Warning 1 Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested
type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated...
This because i have a call in a win32 dll:
Public Declare Ansi Function TheCall Lib "MyDll.DLL" Alias "TheCall" (ByVal
szKey As String) As Int32
Option Explict or Strict don't do anything here.
I'm looking for a solution hopefully placed in the class itself if possible.
The call is executed through the dimensioned class var.
'you are referencing a static method from an instance rather than its class.
use ClassName.MethodName (class referenece), not myObj.MethodName (instance
reference)

Hey, thanks, thought the declares where not public, brain-dead of course.
It says: PUBLIC :)
To bad i couldn't reuse my WITH statement with these calls.
I swapped it for the dimmed object but MS does not like that :)
Thanks,

switch case with enum

Hi

i am getting "a constant value is required" error when i use the enum value
in case statement/
Any ideas?

sample code:

myconfig.cs
----
public enum WebHostingTypes
{

[Description("BASIC")] Basic,

[Description("PLUS")] Plus,

[Description("PREM")] Premium

}

product.cs
------

switch(WebHostingType)

{

case objCommon.GetEnumValueDescription(myconfig.WebHost ingTypes.Basic):
break;

case ....

}

----------

Even if i tried using a something like

public enum Volume

{

Low,

Medium,

High

}

string myVolume = "Medium";

switch(myVolume)

{

case myconfig.Volume.Medium:
break;

case ....

}

- GaneEnumerated values are numbers. If you treat them as such you will have no
problems with them.

well, ok. But i couldnt figure why the example below (2nd Example) is not
working for me, but worked for others (found in some tech articles).

I wouldn't know, as I haven't seen them. However, I can't see any good
reason for doing so. You have to be careful what tech articles you read, and
by whom they are written.
