VB. NET Shared Sub Main()

HI,

I’m learning C# and already know VB .Net. I noticed that C# you have a
Static Void Main () (entry point of the app).

Well that got me thinking, I was told that VB.net removed “The Black Box”
of software (hidden code). Where is my Shared sub Main ()? When I create a
blank app and run it, it asked me where is Shared sub Main. So, can I assume
that it’s hidden on a win32 app? And if so, why hide it?

Thanks

In other words, this isn't a framework feature which C# can't use, it's
a VB.NET compiler feature (and not one I personally like, but that's a
different matter).

I said I am now not in the possition of the book where I thought that I had
readed it in, therefore I have no start point for furter investigation and
did even not want to go for idalsm what I could have done before, however
than still does not misprove what I thought I have readed.

That you personally not like this feature in VBNet is your personally
decission as you wrote.

The Sub Main is even from before the C time as a needed hard named
startpoint (address 0). I never liked it that it was not variable.

To like this, sounds for me very conservative, while I like innovation.

I have a base class with several derived classes (I'm writing in VB.NET). I want each derived class to have a unique class ID (a String), and I want the derived classes to inherit from the base class *Shared* methods which make use of the class ID. So I gave the base class a classID field, and then I gave the derived classes Shared constructors, which I used to set the classID field to the appropriate values for each derived class. But...

Hi, We have an application framework library that gets statically linked to any applications we produce. (Windows apps, but I don't think that matters here). The framework is based heavily on the STL and the API uses many STL constructs. Because of the static linking, and the fact that both app and framework are built by the same compiler, we don't have any problems.

Hi, I'm trying to write an application which have a component that I like to modify without restarting it. Thus, I was thinking of using a shared object for that component. However, in the example below, I haven't figured out a way to modify commonClass.cpp (for example, the print() method) and be able to see the changes without rerunning the application. I can see changes made directly in sharedClass.cpp, though. Is there a way to see...

(Platform: Solaris with gmake and native Sun C++ compiler) Problem: If I create a shared object (.so file) and load it into a executable, the loader correctly runs constructors of static objects in the .so file. But if I link the same code statically, with no shared object, then the constructors don't run at all! Why?? Here's an example: <file AnnounceConstruction.cpp>

First of all, sorry for duplicating this post. I put it up in the alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ mistakenly. I'm investigating a problem whereby exceptions thrown from functions in a Shared Library which was dynamically loaded (dlopen) are not properly caught by the caller. Specifically, when compiling with G++ version 4.0, the RTTI data associated with the exception types is not being properly aligned between the Shared Library and its...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
