New Oject() {} vs. New Object(-1) {}

[stand__sure]

This has bugged me for some time.

Is there any "behind the scenes" difference between the following two
snippets?
Dim obj1 As Object = New Oject() {}
Dim obj2 As Object = New Object(-1) {}
Thanks!

Apart from the obvious typos', I would suggest that there is no significant
difference.

Try:

Dim obj1() As Object = New Object() {}
Dim obj2() As Object = New Object(-1) {}
Console.WriteLine(obj1.Length)
Console.WriteLine(obj1.GetLowerBound(0))
Console.WriteLine(obj1.GetUpperBound(0))
Console.WriteLine(obj2.Length)
Console.WriteLine(obj2.GetLowerBound(0))
Console.WriteLine(obj2.GetUpperBound(0))

and observe the results.

After some corrections ('obj1()', 'obj2()', 'Oject' -> 'Object') there is no
difference, not even behind the scenes, between the two lines.

Thanks for the replies (and for tolerance of the typo).

I had seen no difference in the debugger, but the guidance from microsoft
was to use "New Object(-1) {}" to create an empty array -- the form "New
Object() {}" is more intuitive...

I'd use the latter form.
