[mono-vb] Re: [Mono-devel-list] MSVB conversion from C# to Mbas status

Dennis and Jambu,

Nice to hear from you both...

Specifically about

It may be easier to track the MANDATORY
Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.StandardModuleAttribute that
all .NET classes that are to be understood as a vb module by
vbc/mbas/bmcs must sport.

It is easy to look at them like in this snippet from Strings.cs:

<snip>
using Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices;
 
namespace Microsoft.VisualBasic
{
        [StandardModule]
        [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Auto)]
        public class Strings
        {
...
</snip>

Thanks for the hard work guys,
