Code Blocks (ASP Classic and VB.Net Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

ASP Classic versus VB.Net: A side by side comparison between ASP Classic and VB.Net.

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.

ASP Classic: End Xxx

In .ASP html pages, you embed ASP code between <% and %>.

ASP Classic code blocks are surrounded by statement ending keywords that all use End such as End Sub, End If, and WEnd.

Syntax Example:

<%

Sub x

End Sub

If x Then

End If

While x

WEnd

%>

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
