C# -> VB: Type members in a module cannot be shared

Input code

static partial class SpecializedCollections
{
        public static readonly byte[] EmptyBytes = EmptyArray<byte>();
        public static readonly object[] EmptyObjects = EmptyArray<object>();
}

Erroneous output

Partial Module SpecializedCollections
        Public Shared ReadOnly EmptyBytes As Byte() = EmptyArray(Of Byte)()
        Public Shared ReadOnly EmptyObjects As Object() = EmptyArray(Of Object)()
End Module

Expected output

Partial Module SpecializedCollections
        Public ReadOnly EmptyBytes As Byte() = EmptyArray(Of Byte)()
        Public ReadOnly EmptyObjects As Object() = EmptyArray(Of Object)()
End Module

Details

The example shows fields, but applies to anything declared in a module.

Also, module constructors cannot be private.

Apologies for the confusion. I wasn’t talking about project specific stuff, just standard Visual Studio build workflow. Fortunately VS has extensive documentation and articles on getting started, so you can just Google:

• First result googling for open Test Runner explorer
• Third result googling where do I set the startup project (the others didn’t have pictures)

Where do I copy the test case to?

Tests\VB\MemberTests.cs

While this is a “trivial bug” in the sense that a sequence of small understandable steps will solve it, it will require quite a few changes, and some careful reading of the C# and VB documentation. I tagged it “good first issue” because there’s something else to copy the style of (the conversion in the other direction), not because it’s inherently easy.

While you’re getting used to the development environment too I’d probably recommend starting on the other issue I’ve just tagged here which is a bit smaller.

Hope that helps!
