Using a method from one .cs file class in another .cs files class

Question

I have 2 .cs files each with a class in it. How do I call a method in a class from Form1.cs in another class inside of Form2.cs?

Looks something like this...

Form1.cs

public partial class Class1 : ClassContainer
{
    public void awesomeMethod()
        {
        }
}

Form2.cs

class Class2 : SomethingChanged
{
    public void decentMethod()
    {
    }
}

I would like to call awesomeMethod() inside of the decentMethod(). Thanks.

Answer 1

You mean, like this?

public void decentMethod()
{
    Class1 instance = new Class1();
    instance.awesomeMethod();
}

You need an instance of the class you want to call the method on.

Or, if you don't need/want to work with an instance, make it the method static:

public partial class Class1 : ClassContainer
{
    public static void awesomeMethod()
    {
    }
}

...

public void decentMethod()
{
    Class1.awesomeMethod();
}
