C# -> VB: Simple assignment expression inside a constructor expression body converts to using CSharpImpl.__Assign.

[RussellSmith2]

Input code

internal class NameGenerator
{
    private readonly Func<string, string> _getValidIdentifier;
	
    private NameGenerator(Func<string, string> getValidIdentifier) => _getValidIdentifier = getValidIdentifier;
}

Erroneous output

Friend Class NameGenerator
    Private ReadOnly _getValidIdentifier As Func(Of String, String)

    Private Sub New(getValidIdentifier As Func(Of String, String))
        CSharpImpl.__Assign(_getValidIdentifier, getValidIdentifier)
    End Sub

    Private Class CSharpImpl
        <Obsolete("Please refactor calling code to use normal Visual Basic assignment")>
        Shared Function __Assign(Of T)(ByRef target As T, value As T) As T
            target = value
            Return value
        End Function
    End Class
End Class

Expected output

Friend Class NameGenerator
    Private ReadOnly _getValidIdentifier As Func(Of String, String)

    Private Sub New(getValidIdentifier As Func(Of String, String))
      _getValidIdentifier = getValidIdentifier
    End Sub
End Class
