Explicit interface implementation in VB.NET

Question

How to implement explicit interface implementation in VB.NET?

Answer 1

As others have said, make the routine private, and it forces clients to call through the interfaces.

Just one more word. Explicit interface implementation in C# also allows the programmer to inherit two interfaces that share the same member names and give each interface member a separate implementation. In VB.Net, that's easy, because the implementing methods can have different names from the interface names.

Function ICanUseAnyNameILike() As String Implements IFoo.Bar

Function ItsTotalAnarchy() As String Implements IFoo2.Bar, IFoo3.ItsMadnessReally

Answer 2

Just declare sub/function Private:

Private Function Bar() As String Implements IFoo.Bar

Answer 3

put the method to private.
