It appears the book in question is based on .Net 1.1.
What they are saying is:
You CAN do this:
namespace Cheese
{
namespace MoreCheese
{
}
}
But you can NOT do this:
namespace Cheese
{
namespace Stinky.Cheese
{
}
}
If you try to compiled the second one in 1.1 you get this error:
error CS0134: Cannot use qualified namespace names in nested namespace declarations
THIS ONLY APPLIES TO .NET 1.1. .Net 2.0 DOES allow this.
