Hello.
I'm making a project where I need to use a method in more pages.

I have 3 pages, on each one I must call a method named Foo(string s), this method will return a int32 value.

Now I written the same method (copy/paste) in each page, but I want something more clean, without wasting time and code.

Could I write only once the method Foo(string s), and use it in all pages? Can you give me a simple example?

Thanks in advance!

This is a simple way that immediately comes to my mind

1. Create a base class that will be used by all the 3 pages

C#

public class BasePage : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    public int YourMethod(string str)
    {
        int someNum = 1;
        return someNum;
    }
}

2. All your 3 pages should inherit this, instead of System.Web.UI.Page

C#

public class Default : BasePage
{
      protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
          // You can use YourMethod here
      }
}

Hope this helps! Comment if you have any questions.
