Multiassignment in VB like in C-Style languages

Is there a way to perform thi开发者_StackOverflow中文版s in VB.NET like in the C-Style languages:

struct Thickness
{
    double _Left;
    double _Right;
    double _Top;
    double _Bottom;

    public Thickness(double uniformLength)
    {
        this._Left = this._Right = this._Top = this._Bottom = uniformLength;
    }
}


Expanding on Mark's correct answer

This type of assignment style is not possible in VB.Net. The C# version of the code works because in C# assignment is an expression which produces a value. This is why it can be chained in this manner.

In VB.Net assignment is a statement and not an expression. It produces no value and cannot be changed. In fact if you write the code "a = b" as an expression it will be treated as a value comparison and not an assignment.

At a language level assignment is a statement and not an expression.


As soon as I post this, someone will provide an example of how to do it. But I don't think it is possible. VB.NET treats the single equals in the r-value as a comparison. For example:

  Dim i As Integer
  Dim j As Integer
  i = 5
  j = i = 4
  Debug.Print(j.ToString())
  j = i = 5
  Debug.Print(j.ToString())

The above code prints 0 (false) and -1 (true).
