VB.Net Format Against C#

[Clark Kent]

HI!


Any one can tell why VB.Net gives error

Operator '*' is not defined for types 'Microsoft.DirectX.Matrix' and
'Microsoft.DirectX.Matrix'.

from lines that are below and in C# it works just fine?

How ill solve this? Totally lost now.



EXAMPLES:

VB.Net

Dim m As Matrix = Matrix.Translation(0, 0.4F, 0)

m *= Me.TransformMatrix()

dev.Transform.World = m

C#

Matrix m = Matrix.Translation(0,0.4f,0);

m *= this.TransformMatrix();

dev.Transform.World = m;

VB .NET doesn't support operator overloading. You may want to use the
Multiply method of the Matrix class.

You can't multiply matrices using the * operator. Only basic data types can
be multiplied.
