Will VB have the yield keyword?

It appears that the VB team are deciding whether or not to give the world access to some code re-writing functionality that has become loosely known throughout the programming world as "code refactoring".  This is a feature where you can ask the IDE to invoke a macro on a section of code rather than having to perform the arduous 3 or 4 steps manually.  The thing is that they've decided that their target user either won't understand or (perhaps) will be scared off by the term "Refactor" so, they would propose to call the Refactor function something other than “Refactor” - similar to when they called Partial classes something other than “Partial” I suppose.

Guys, if you are looking for a name for this function can I suggest "Mojo"?  I think that the average Mort around town would really warm to the idea of adding some "mojo" to thier code ;-)

  • Hi there! I recognize this is sort of off-topic
    then again I had to ask. Does running a well-established
    blog such as yours take plenty of work? I am brand new
    to blogging however I do write in my diary on a daily basis.
    I’d such as to start a blog so I can with no trouble share my personal experience and views over the internet.

    Please let me know whenever you have any kind of recommendations or tips for
    brand new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

  • Thanks for this post. I definitely agree with
    what you are saying. I have been talking about this subject a ton lately with my father so hopefully this
    will determine him to see my point of view. Fingers crossed!

  • Sometimes, blogging is a bit tiresome specially if you need to update more topics.

  • you can still also offer your baby some antibacterial baby
    socks to ensure that your baby is always clean`
