VB equivalent of testing some return value

In C I can do this:

if(e=my_func()){
...
}

There is some equivalent in VB?

You need a function returning something. Let's say it is a boolean.

Function x() As Boolean
     Return True
End Function

Now you can check it like this:

  If x() = True Then
        'do something
  End If

or more simply:

   If x() Then
            'do something
   End If

Here is other possibilities, just to make it clear.

Function x() As Integer
     Return 5
End Function

If x() = 5 Then
    'do something
End If

If Not (x() = 5) Then
    'do something
End If

Dim y as Integer
y = x()

If y = 5 Then
    'do something
End If

I believe the equivalent is this:

e = my_func()
If e Then
    '...

You also have to keep in mind that VB has different rules for implicitly converting values to the Boolean type.
