Cause for CS0542 - "member names cannot be the same as their enclosing type"

.net, c#

Solution

The problem is here:

public void SuperTeam(string nSuperTeamName)
{
    SuperTeamName = nSuperTeamName;
}

I believe you wanted to have a constructor for your class, and since constructor can't have a return type, the compiler is treating it as a method. Now the method name is same as the class name, that is why you are getting the error.

- If it is a constructor then remove `void` (return type)

- If it is a simple method then change the name to something other than `SuperTeam`

See Details about your Error - Compiler Error CS0542:

The members of a class or struct cannot have the same name as the class or struct, unless the member is a constructor

AND (thanks to @Alexei Levenkov)

This error might be caused if you inadvertently put a return type on a constructor, which in effect makes it into an ordinary method.
