giving a class instance the name of a variable

Question

How can i give a class instance the name of an existing variable. I am trying like this string hex = "BF43F"; Zeugh hex = new Zeugh(); but its wrong. I want to create an object BF43F with the properties of Zeugh class.

Answer 1

Sounds like you want a Dictionary<string, Zeugh>. For example:

var d = new Dictionary<string, Zeugh>();
string hex = "BF43F"; 
d.Add(hex, new Zeugh());

(later)

Zeugh it = d["BF43F"];

Answer 2

You can't declare two variables with the same name in the same scope.
If you later access the variable hex, how should the compiler know if you mean the "BF43F" string or the Zeugh object?

Or do you want an object with the same properties as a Zeugh object, but with one additional string property to save your string "BF43F" in?

You could create another class which inherits from Zeugh and has an additional string property:

public class ExtendedZeugh : Zeugh
{
    public string AdditionalString { get; set; }
}

Then, you can store your string "BF43F" in this property:

var hex = new ExtendedZeugh();
hex.AdditionalString = "BF43F";
