Make dynamic object global

My original code:

public partial class LineInstance
{
   EventWaitHandle _stopHandle;
   Private int _linenumber;
   // many variable;
   public LineInstance(int linenumber, EventWaitHandle stopper)
   {
      _stopHandle = stopper;
  _linenumber = linenumber;
      // blah
   }    

   private string Menu()
   {
      dynamic api = new Http("http://80.56.16.214/MyServices/MyData.svc");
  var reply = api.GetId(Id: "888");
  var response1 = reply.Response;
  // blah blah
}
 }

Now I want to make these

dynamic api = new Http("http://80.56.16.214/MyServices/MyData.svc");
var reply = api.GetId(Id: "888");
var response1 = reply.Response;

to be global because I want to use in other methods in this class. I tried move them to the area before class constructor

updated:

public partial class LineInstance
{
EventWaitHandle _stopHandle;
private int _linenumber;
dynamic api = new Http("http://80.56.16.214/MyServices/MyData.svc");
var reply = api.GetId(Id: "888");
var response1 = reply.Response;
          // blah blah

but I got an error:

Error: “an object reference is required for the non-static field, method or property

How do I modify my code to make them be global?

To adress these properties from other methods of the class, you don't have to make them static. Your updated code is almost right. Here's what you need to do:

public partial class LineInstance
{
   EventWaitHandle _stopHandle;
   Private int _linenumber;
   dynamic api;
   dynamic reply;
   dynamic response1;

   // many variable;
   public LineInstance(int linenumber, EventWaitHandle stopper)
   {
      _stopHandle = stopper;
  _linenumber = linenumber;
      // blah
   }    

   private string Menu()
   {
  api = new Http("http://80.56.16.214/MyServices/MyData.svc");
  reply = api.GetId(Id: "888");
  response1 = reply.Response;
  // blah blah
  }
 }

As you see, the only thing I've changed is I initialize the fields in the constructor, not the class body — that way there's no error.

Define your object as static if you want to be able to use it without any specific instance of your class

public partial class LineInstance
{
private static dynamic api;
EventWaitHandle _stopHandle;
private int _linenumber;
    // many variable;
public LineInstance(int linenumber, EventWaitHandle stopper)
{
_stopHandle = stopper;
_linenumber = linenumber;
    // blah
 }

You should provide a public property to access the object

public static dynamic Api{
 get{ return api; }

}

Apart from that, there are no global variables in C# and you should avoid them by any means!
