[RESOLVED] Variables

is it correct to declare variables like this in Vb.NET ?:

Dim a, b, c as integer

or it should be:

Dim a as integer
dim b as integer
dim c as integer

Cuz i read somewhere that if i declare "Dim a, b, c as integer" then only c will be treat as integer , a and b are variants.

Variant isn't supported in .net - it's been replaced by object - defining variables like that is fine - in your example all are integers.

what you read was probably about VB6, when the

Dim a, b, c as integer, resulted in a and b being variants...

As gordon freeman mentioned, they have changed this for .NET

As has been said, there is no technical issue with declaring multiple variables on a single line. In fact, you can even do this:

VB Code:

Dim x As String, y As Integer, z As Boolean

Having said that, it is generally considered better practice to declare each variable on a different line, regardless of whether they are the same type or not.
