inaccessible due to its protection level

Question

i am displaying version(WrmVersion) value in a listview ,,but here i given one codition means if version(WrmVersion) is null i am displaying \'None\'(ResourcePolicyAvailSystems

Answer 1

Well, what is the protection level of ResourcePolicyAvailSystemsLVI.m_nullString ? And where is your code in relation? It will be inaccessible if, for example

• it is private and you're in an unrelated class
• it is protected and you're not in a subclass
• it is internal and you're in a different assembly without [InternalsVisibleTo]
• it is protected internal and both of the two above apply

To be honest, it looks like a field, and fields generally aren't public - so it wouldn't amaze me if somebody has changed the accessibility, perhaps adding a public static property to wrap it - or simply changed the name (although that would give a different error). Try looking for ResourcePolicyAvailSystemsLVI.NullString or similar (in intellisense / object-browser).

Re your comment; you have:

private static string m_nullString =
    Managers.ControlStrings.GetString("ManagedDeviceWizard.None");

so just add:

public static string NullString {get {return m_nullString;}}

and change your calling code to use ResourcePolicyAvailSystemsLVI.NullString.

Answer 2

You can't add:

  ResourcePolicyAvailSystemsLVI.m_nullString

because the scope of that member is either private or internal.

You need to make it public (or ideally, expose it via a property).
