C# to VB

I used a C# to VB converter program. First the C# code:

Code:

---

#region Property: Authentication
private Authentication _authentication;

[DefaultValue(null), XmlElement(@"Authentication")]
public Authentication Authentication
{
  get { return this._authentication; }
  set { this._authentication = value; }
}
#endregion

---

Now the VB code:

Code:

---

Private _authentication As Authentication
<DefaultValue(Nothing), XmlElement("Authentication")> _
Public Property Authentication() As Authentication
    Get
        Return Me._authentication
    End Get
    Set(ByVal value As Authentication)
        Me._authentication = value
    End Set
End Property

---

Now the VB throws an exception on

Code:

---

<DefaultValue(Nothing), XmlElement("Authentication")> _

---

stating Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' is most specific for these arguments: etc..

Anyone shed some light on this? I am pretty novice with C# and brand new to XML and blah...

Thank you

I may be wrong, but I think it is safe to remove the DefaultValue attribute completely.

okay, I removed the lines, but I have a whole mess of other conversion issues to resolve, I will rate ya when I'm done :)

try this. no need to remove the attributes:

vb Code:

Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Xml.Serialization
 
Public Class Form1
 
    Private _authentication As Authentication
    <DefaultValue(GetType(Authentication), Nothing), XmlElement("Authentication")> _
    Public Property Authentication() As Authentication
        Get
            Return Me._authentication
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Authentication)
            Me._authentication = value
        End Set
    End Property
 
End Class

Or:

vb.net Code:

DefaultValue(CObj(Nothing))

should work too I think
