Passing arrays as parameters in Vb.Net

[kaartik]

I have a class that contains an array and i would like to access the individual array elements in a form. I understand that VB.net does not allow the array to be public and i think i need to pass it as a parameter?
What i would like is on the form, to have a button when clicked, it checks the elements against each other to see if they are different (they are integers).

VB.NET allows array variables to be public members of a class.
implement a property which wraps around the array:

\\\
Private m_Names() As String

Public Property Names() As String()
Get
Return m_Names
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String())
m_Names = Value
End Set
End Property
///

Dim ARRAY1 As Int16() = {2, 3, 5, 6, 7}

    Dim ARRAY2 As Int16() = {4, 2, 1, 3, 5}

    Dim I As Int16

 

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        If Array_compare(ARRAY1, ARRAY2) Then

            MsgBox("Arrays r equal")

        Else

            MsgBox("Arrays not equal")

        End If

    End Sub

 

    Private Function Array_compare(ByVal arr1 As Int16(), ByVal arr2 As Int16()) As Boolean

        For I = 0 To arr1.GetUpperBound(0)

            If arr1(I) <> arr2(I) Then

                Return False

                'return false when it just find one item not equal

            End If

        Next

 

        'returns true only if all items are equal

        Return True
