vb.net -> C#: Replace Visual Basic library calls with equivalent things from the .NET framework

instead of using: !Information.IsDBNull

it should use !DBNull.Value.Equals

@GrahamTheCoder “Another good example in #345”

Be carefull with this call.

See the following VB code

Public x As String = Nothing
Public y as String = IIf(x is Nothing, "123", q)

Public Function q()
  x = "ABC"
  exit x
End Function

The first line sets x to Nothing (null) The second line checks is x is nothing, then executes function q, and then returns “123”. If the first condition was also a function this would have been executed first.

If I replace the IIf with an If (so 1 I) then code runs as: The first line sets x to Nothing (null) The second line checks if x is nothing, so it returns “123” - q is NOT executed.

So iif(x Is Nothing, 1, x.length) will cause a runtime error While if(x Is Nothing, 1, x.length) will not
