increment operator

hi all, is there a ++ or -- post/pre-increment operator in visual basic?

There are no increment or decrement operators in VB.NET.

hmm, ok

As stated, no...you can read a little insight as to why here and here. However, you can use the following...

Code:

i += 1

ok thanks alot, anyway, why isn't * allowed in imports like

Code:

imports myclass.*

**PeejAvery** · November 2nd, 2009, 07:13 PM

Just import the primary.

Code:

imports myclass

but that way i would have to refer to functions in the innerclass as innerfunction.somestuff() whereby i jus wish to refer to it as somestuff()

True. But, that could cause problems for duplicate methods within subclasses. I don't believe a method or workaround of this type exists in VB.NET.

ok thanks, i was thinking that if it had duplicate methods i could then call it innerclass.duplicatemethod since the compiler would realise its duplicate instantly
