Code Blocks (VB.Net and C++ Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

VB.Net versus C++: A side by side comparison between VB.Net and C++.

 
Language Basics
 

Language basics is kind of a catch all for absolute beginner stuff. The items (common names) I chose for language basics is a bit random and include items like case sensitivity, commenting, declaring variables, etc.

Code Blocks

[Other Languages] 

Languages Focus

The rules for code blocks within a language dictate where you can declare variables, how you "bracket" code, etc.

VB.Net:   End Xxx

VB.Net, like VB Classic code blocks, are surrounded by statement ending keywords that all use End such as End Class, End Sub, End Function, and End If.

Syntax Example:
Public Class Dog
End Class
 
Protected Sub MySub
End Sub
  
Public Shared Function MySharedFunction() As Integer
MySharedFunction = 12345
End Function
 
If x Then
End If
C++:   { }

For C++, Java, JavaScript, and PHP, I will use Berkeley indent style only because I see more C++ code formatted that way.

Syntax Example:
int Dog::Bark() {
cout << "My first class method!" << endl;
return 0;
};
