Public Class Example
    Private factor As Integer
    Public Sub New(ByVal f As Integer)
        factor = f
    End Sub

    Public Function SampleMethod(ByVal x As Integer) As Integer
        Return x * factor
    End Function

    Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim assem As [Assembly] = [Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly()

        Dim assemName As AssemblyName = assem.GetName()
        Console.WriteLine(vbLf + "Name: {0}", assemName.Name)
        Console.WriteLine("Version: {0}.{1}", assemName.Version.Major, _
            assemName.Version.Minor)

        Console.WriteLine(vbLf + "Assembly CodeBase:")
        Console.WriteLine(assem.CodeBase)
