How can I call a public static method of a class from a click of a button?

For example I have a button call record. Instead of putting the whole code behind the button I want it to call the method of a class that will call recording

Thanks Guys!

You need to make sure that the namespace for the static class is included at the top of your file, or make the call like this

protected void Button_Click( object sender, EventArgs e )
{
    NameSpace.Recording.Method();
}

Solution 2

if it's a static method you call it by referencing to the class that contains the method, and not through an instance of that class.
so in the Click event of your button, you only need to write(supposing is C#):

protected void Button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
 Recording.Method();
}

is this what you are looking for?
