How to hand over a local var to another method in C#?

Question

I have got a deserialization method which returns a ValueTuple<String[],String[],String[,],String[,],String[,]>:

var des = deserializeobject(filename);

Now I would like to work with these arrays within the method

public static void oDocX();

How can I hand over the local variable des to the method oDocX?

Add a parameter to your oDocX methods. Visual Studio may tell you what the actual type of des is. — PMF, Jun 28 '18 at 08:47
Your object ref to oDocX needs to implement a method or property so you can pass it in. — Wheels73, Jun 28 '18 at 08:47
How about changing the signature to `public static void oDocX(ValueTuple values);`? — Oliver, Jun 28 '18 at 08:50

Either have a variable at class level:

class YourClass
{
    private static ValueTuple<String[],String[],String[,],String[,],String[,]> _des;

    // some methods

    public static void oDocX() {...}
}

and then assign it like this:

_des = deserializeobject(filename);

and use it like this in oDocX:

public static void oDocX()
{
    var x = _des;
}

Or take it as a parameter of oDocX:

public static void oDocX(ValueTuple<String[],String[],String[,],String[,],String[,]> des)
{
    var x = des;
}

And call the method like this:

var des = deserializeobject(filename);
oDocX(des);
