Anonymous Types: VB.NET vs C#
Did you know that in C#, the anonymous types are immutable ie they cannot be changed. However in VB.NET this is not the case.
The following example illustrates the difference
In C#
var customAnonymoustType = new { Name = "Some Name", Age = 12 };
customAnonymoustType.Name = "New Name"; //This will not compileYou will get the following error message "Property or indexer 'AnonymousType#1.Name' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only" .Let us now try the same thing in VB.NET
Dim customAnonymoustType = New With {.Name = "Some Name", .Age = 12}
customAnonymoustType.Name =
"New Name" 'compiles fine
Just one of the differences between VB.NET and C#
