Compiler Error CS0118
'construct1_name' is a 'construct1' but is used like a 'construct2'
The compiler detected a situation in which a construct was used in some erroneous way or a disallowed operation was tried on a construct. Some common examples include the following:
A try to instantiate a namespace (instead of a class)
A try to call a field (instead of a method)
A try to use a type as a variable
A try to use an extern alias as a type.
To resolve this error, make sure that the operation you are performing is valid for the type you are performing the operation on.
The following sample generates CS0118.
// CS0118.cs
// compile with: /target:library
namespace MyNamespace
{
class MyClass
{
// MyNamespace not a class
MyNamespace ix = new MyNamespace (); // CS0118
}
}
