vb.net - what different of Dim files() As String and Dim files As String()

Question

for example:

Dim files() As String = Directory.GetFiles("C:/")

Dim files As String() = Directory.GetFiles("C:/")

what different of them??

thanks you

Answer 1

They produce exactly the same thing - just two alternative forms of declaration.

Answer 2

The two are identical. If you use Reflector, you can see that they are compiled to the same IL:

.field private string[] files
