Hi all,
According C# Language Specification :
10.11 Static constructors:
The static constructor for a class executes at most once in a given
application domain. The execution of a static constructor is triggered
by the first of the following events to occur within an application
domain:
- An instance of the class is created.
- Any of the static members of the class are referenced.
Then can someone confirm that the following code does not act as it
should (seems like a bug), i.e. static constructor is NEVER called.
Pls, note that if you uncomment the first line in Main(), everything
runs as expected.
Also, my environment is VS.Net 2003/framework 1.1.
Thanks
Sunny
