How to create a Constants class

  • Updated

Ektron uses a constants class named "Constants." If you create a similar class called "Constants" in app code, you can prevent Ektron components from working because the Constants class is referenced throughout the Ektron API.

Add a namespace to your custom "Constants" class to avoid conflicts. For example:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

namespace MySampleConstants
{
  /// 
  /// Summary description for Constants
  /// 
  public static class Constants
  {
  }
}

You then reference your custom constants class by MySampleConstants.Constants .

Alternatively, you can rename your class all together.
