Is it possible to make alias for a variable in C#?

Assume in a winform application we have in program.cs:

static class Program
{
    public static SomeClass someClass;

    [STAThread]
    static void Main()
    {
        //something
    }
}

so to use someClassin other classes in current Project we should access Program.someClass

the question is can we make an alias for Program.someClass like for example c1 and use c1 in code instead of Program.someClass?

Just pass that object to each class that need to work with it

Assuming that you want to achieve something like macros in C/C++ and also want to get rid of "Program" as naming scope, I think you cannot do that in C#.

If you're just looking to alias it for wrist-friendliness, do it as an inline delegate, like this:

Func<SomeClass> c1 = () => Program.someClass;

But I agree that it makes your code less clear in most cases.
