Marking A Class Static in VB.NET

Question

As just stated in a recent question and answer, you can\'t inherit from a static class. How does one enforce the rules that go along with static classes inside VB.NET? Sin

Answer 1

You can create static class in vb.net. The solution is

Friend NotInheritable Class DB
    Public Shared AGE As Integer = 20
End Class

AGE variable is public static, you can use it in other code just like this

 Dim myage As Integer = DB.AGE

Friend = public, NotInheritable = static
