Problem calling a method of an object maded in a thread.

Hi guys.

All in FORM1

Code:

---

public partial class Form1 : Form
    { 
Thread thread;
 
public Form1()
        {
thread = new Thread(run);
            thread.Start(); 
        }
public void run()
        {
          ConectadoThread socketConectado = new ConectadoThread();
        }
private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
 
        {   
 
            socketConectado.close();
 
        }
 
 }

---

Why when i do "socketConectado.close()" it shows me:

Error 2 The name 'socketConectado' does not exist in the current context C:\Users\Mauri\Desktop\Proyectos\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\WindowsFormsApplication3\WindowsFormsApplication3\Form1.cs

Thanks =)

Edit: Solved, need to define the object outside the run method

The 'socketConectado' variable is a local variable that only has scope within the Run() method.

The error you get is because 'socketConectado' isn't defined in the context of the 'Form1_FormClosing' handler.

The simple solution is to make the 'socketConectado' variable a field of the form class.
