I wasn't able to make it with the example you gave (Object in VB.NET, Stub
in C#), apparently due to a bug in VB.NET (all it would tell me was "vbc :
Command line error BC2010 : compilation failed : '0xC0000005'" -- that big
hex number looks suspiciously like the win32 hardware exception code for an
illegal memory access :-). However, I was able to do it the other way around:

given valid input. So really, you need to find a fixed and exact method,
which could be translated into code.
