Actually it is possible.

The .Net Architexture automatically inlines functions if they are smaller than a certain byte size.

<div>
<br />
From MSDN:<br />
<br />
&quot;The JIT compiler automatically inlines any non-virtual method calls that consist of simple control flow and consists of less than 32 bytes of IL instructions.&quot;<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In order to find out how many bytes of IL instructions a function is, use the ILDASM.exe program (it comes with .Net Framework). &nbsp;Point it at your compiled project and be sure to set the properties to show the size of the function.

I want to know if I can write an inline function in VB.NET.

Inline function in VB.NET

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
