Translate kode VB.NET ke C#

Setiap bahasa pada .NET dapat ditranslate dengan mudah antara satu bahasa dengan bahasa lain (Visual Basic ke C# misalnya). Proses translasi dapat menggunakan tools seperti .NET Refactor atau menggunakan layanan gratis online seperti Developer Fusion.

Sebenarnya, setiap bahasa .NET disusun agar dapat mengakses objek yang sama. Dengan demikian, konsekuensinya terjadi penyeragaman struktur bahasa dan tipe data. Dengan mempelajari satu bahasa .NET saja, biasanya bahasa lain akan mudah dipelajari. Langkah awal dalam mempelajari bahasa lain ketika satu bahasa .NET telah dikuasai adalah dengan melihat cheatsheet perbandingan bahasa.

Berikut cheatsheet perbandingan bahasa VB.NET dengan C# (Selengkapnya dapat dilihat pada situs berikut)

Struktur kode program
VB.NET Imports System Namespace MyNameSpace Class HelloWorld ‘Entry point which delegates to C-style main Private Function Public Overloads Shared Sub Main() Main(System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()) End Sub Overloads Shared Sub Main(args() As String) System.Console.WriteLine(“Hello World”) End Sub ‘Main End Class ‘HelloWorld End Namespace ‘MyNameSpace	C# using System Namespace MyNameSpace { class HelloWorld { static void Main(string[] args) { System.Console.WriteLine(“Hello World”) } }
Tipe Data
VB.NET ‘Value Types Boolean Byte Char (example: “A”) Short, Integer, Long Single, Double Decimal Date ‘Reference Types Object String Dim x As Integer System.Console.WriteLine(x.GetType()) System.Console.WriteLine(TypeName(x)) ‘Type conversion Dim d As Single = 3.5 Dim i As Integer = CType (d, Integer) i = CInt (d) i = Int(d)	C# //Value Types bool byte, sbyte char (example: ‘A’) short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong float, double decimal DateTime //Reference Types object string int x; Console.WriteLine(x.GetType()) Console.WriteLine(typeof(int)) //Type conversion float d = 3.5; int i = (int) d
Konstanta
VB.NET Const MAX_AUTHORS As Integer = 25 ReadOnly MIN_RANK As Single = 5.00	C# const int MAX_AUTHORS = 25; readonly float MIN_RANKING = 5.00;
Enumerasi
VB.NET Enum Action Start ‘Stop is a reserved word [Stop] Rewind Forward End Enum Enum Status Flunk = 50 Pass = 70 Excel = 90 End Enum Dim a As Action = Action.Stop If a <> Action.Start Then _ ‘Prints “Stop is 1″ System.Console.WriteLine(a.ToString & ” is ” & a) ‘Prints 70 System.Console.WriteLine(Status.Pass) ‘Prints Pass System.Console.WriteLine(Status.Pass.ToString()) Enum Weekdays Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday End Enum ‘Weekdays	C# enum Action {Start, Stop, Rewind, Forward}; enum Status {Flunk = 50, Pass = 70, Excel = 90}; Action a = Action.Stop; if (a != Action.Start) //Prints “Stop is 1″ System.Console.WriteLine(a + ” is ” + (int) a); // Prints 70 System.Console.WriteLine((int) Status.Pass); // Prints Pass System.Console.WriteLine(Status.Pass); enum Weekdays { Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday }
