(New Object()).Method() in VB.net

Apparently, this does not work.

WHY ???????

I don't want to do all this just to call my function:

Dim x as new Object()
x.Method()

Why do I have to do this in two lines when I can in one.

I'm assuming you don't want to make the method static?

public class foo
    public shared sub sayFoo
        console.writeline("foo")
    end sub
end class

then call sayFoo like.

foo.sayFoo

You need to add the Call keyword.

    Call New Page().DataBind()

This causes the object to be created before passing to the Call statement.

Yes, I agree, (New Object()).Method() seems more intuitive.
