Assignment $16-2$ Create and use a class library

In this exercise, you$$ll create a class library that includes the InventoryItem and InventoryDB

classes. Then, you$$ll use that class library with the Inventory Maintenance app.

Create the Class Library project

$1.$ Create a new Class Library project named InventoryLibrary in the

ExtraStarts$\backslash$Ch$16\backslash$InventoryMaintenanceLib directory.

$2.$ Delete the empty Class$1.$cs class, and add the InventoryItem and InventoryDB classes

from the Inventory Maintenance project in the same directory.

$3.$ Change the namespace in both of the classes you just added so it$$s a namespace named

Inventory nested within a namespace with your last name.

$4.$ Generate a file that will allow any XML documentation in the class library to be visible

to any code that uses the library.

$5.$ Change the solution configuration for the class library to Release, and then build the class

library. When you$$re done, close the solution Assignment $16-2$ Create and use a class library

In this exercise, you'll create a class library that includes the InventoryItem and InventoryDB classes. Then, you'll use that class library with the Inventory Maintenance app.

Create the Class Library project

$1.$ Create a new Class Library project named InventoryLibrary in the ExtraStarts$\backslash$Ch$16$ InventoryMaintenanceLib directory.

$2.$ Delete the empty Class $1.$cs class, and add the InventoryItem and InventoryDB classes from the Inventory Maintenance project in the same directory.

$3.$ Change the namespace in both of the classes you just added so it's a namespace named Inventory nested within a namespace with your last name.

$4.$ Generate a file that will allow any XML documentation in the class library to be visible to any code that uses the library.

$5.$ Change the solution configuration for the class library to Release, and then build the class library. When you're done, close the solution.

Modify the Inventory Maintenance app to use the library

$6.$ Open the InventoryMaintenance project in the ExtraStarts$\backslash$Ch$16$ InventoryMaintenanceLib directory.

$7.$ Delete the InventoryItem.cs and InventoryDB.cs files, and then add a reference to the InventoryLibrary assembly you created in step $4.$

$8.$ Display the code for the Inventory Maintenance form, and add a using directive for the namespace you created in step $3.$ Do the same for the New Item form.

$9.$ Test the app to be sure it still works.

Bonus

$10.$ Move the Validator class to a class library and update the Inventory Maintenance app to use it$.$
