I have seen the following code, specifially an object or reference will be
surrounded with square brackets and can not find any documentation to
explain the syntax for the usage. Can someone tell me the reasoning behind
this?
Thanks
Kevin
[Assembly] i.e.
Dim asm As System.Reflection.[Assembly] =
System.Reflection.[Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly()
or
For Each a As [Assembly] In AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies
PopulateAssemblySummary(a)
Next
or
[string]
Public Function Compare(ByVal x As Object, ByVal y As Object) As Integer
Implements IComparer.Compare
Dim intResult As Integer = _
[String].Compare(CType(x,
ListViewItem).SubItems(_intCol).Text, _
CType(y, ListViewItem).SubItems(_intCol).Text)
If _IsAscending Then
Return intResult
Else
Return -intResult
End If
End Function 5 1135

Thanks Chris!!! and the example tells all.

Thanks Greg, as Chris also pointed out. I wasn't sure why someone would code
that way I guess was the main reason for asking, this makes things clearer.
