How to use AAA syntax in VB.NET.

Hi,

Unfortunately, at this point you can't.

The reason is that VB doesn't support lambda expessions, and as for anonymous delegates, it doesn't support Action(Of T). So while you can use th AddressOf operator instead of the lambda, you can do this for expressions that return a value, not void ones. This is a language issue that will be resolved in VB 10.

But until the, you can use Natural or Reflective mocks. I can tell you that we are in the works of fitting the features of AAA to VB syntax. We'll keep you updated as we continue.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Hi there.

Cheers for the reply. After doing some research, before reading your post, I can see what you mean with the lack of support in VB.NET. No worries as I'm happy using C# anyway, thus I'll write my unit tests in C# (as seperate pojects), even if the main code was written in VB.

Cheers.

How about

Isolate.WhenCalled(AddressOf fake.Increment).IgnoreCall

Will it work?

Hi Artem,

It won't work if this is a Sub (void method). It compiles if it's a function (If I recall correctly).

We do have our VB API coming out soon. So there are going to be options.

Thanks,

Hmm haven't tried that yet, but I see there are two overloads:

Public Shared Function WhenCalled(ByVal action As Action) As IVoidActionHandler
and
Public Shared Function WhenCalled(Of T)(ByVal func As Func(Of T)) As IPublicNonVoidMethodHandler(Of T)

The first one takes Action, so it should work with a delegate to a Sub. The other can take a Function lambda, I guess.

I'll be happy to use the VB version though.
