C# uses the enum statement along with opening and closing braces to indicate the beginning and end of an enumeration definition. For example:
public enum CheckedState {
// enumeration members
}
In VB, an enumeration is defined by the Enum... End Enum construct. For example, the VB version of the CheckedState enum declaration is:
Public Enum CheckedState ' enumeration members End Enum
In both C# and VB, the member listing consists of the name of the enumerated member and its value. These are identical in C# and VB, except that C# adds a comma to separate one member of the enumeration from another, whereas VB requires that they be on separate lines. For example, the full declaration of the CheckedState enumeration in C# is:
public enum CheckedState {
Unchecked = 0,
Checked = 1,
Indeterminate = 2
}
The VB equivalent is:
Public Enum CheckedState Unchecked = 0 Checked = 1 Indeterminate = 2 End Enum
