Goodness, no! VB allows all sorts of looseness which is disallowed
in RB. This is a feature; it prevents whole classes of potential
mistakes.
Your code shouldn't be assigning 1 to myEnum; it should be
assigning some enum value.
The reason I'm asking this question is that I have a DLL that
includes a bunch of supplied code in VB and I've been working on
documenting the changes that need to be made. The problem I'm seeing
is this VB Looseness / RB Tightness because the DLL can only return
integers.... but I'd still like to take advantage of the If anyone
has a better idea of how to handle this, I'd LOVE to know!
