Abstract

Type members are the fundamental programming constructs used to build types within the.NET Framework. Type members in VB.NET include constants, fields (also, confusingly, known as variables), properties, subroutines, functions, constructors, and events. In this chapter, we’ll see how these type members are mapped into the.NET Framework, and how they are used in each of VB.NET’s programmable types — classes, structures, modules, and so on.
