    A namespace cannot directly contain members such as fields or methods:

    If you are new to coding, you may definitely come across a compiler error. If it shows the error code—CS0116, you have to get it fixed. Usually, such errors occur in C#. You will usually notice the error if a namespace cannot directly contain members such as fields or methods.

    What Does This Error Signify?

    If you have recently started working on coding or C#, noticing such errors is common. You need to brush up coding concepts and just go through some introductory chapters to get familiar with namespace. 

    What does a namespace error or compiler error code-CS0116 look like?

    namespace DeveloperPublishNamespace

    {

        public int Field1;

        public class DeveloperPublish

        {

            public static void Main()

            {

     

            }

        }

    }

    Error: A namespace cannot directly contain members such as fields or methods

    Solution: Move the fields or methods into a class from namespace.

    Correct use of Namespace – An Example:

    namespace MyNameSpace

    {

       int i; <– THIS NEEDS TO BE INSIDE THE CLASS

     

       class MyClass

       {

          …

       }

    }

    Note: If you can’t recognize what’s “outside” the class, consider the addition/ deletion of misplaced or extra closing bracket(s) }.

    100% Correct Solution—Points to Remember:

    • Remove one of the closing curly braces from the three in a row.
    • Place a curly brace after the Swing Axe function. 
    • The use of a third closing curly brace starts post update function. 
    • SwingAxe Function is currently outside the class.
    • You have used invalid syntax and coding structure.

    Note: Next time, don’t declare a method or field under namespace. They should always be mentioned in the class.

    In Conclusion:

    Thus, namespace error can be easily detected and rectified using the correct way of placing brackets and curly braces. It’s one of the commonest errors that every user when they start working on C#. So, next time you notice a namespace cannot directly contain members such as fields or methods, you need not worry. Just make sure that your syntax is correct and you can easily get rid of the error.
