VB.Net Properties - Public Get, Private Set

Question

I figured I would ask... but is there a way to have the Get part of a property available as public, but keep the set as private?

Otherwise I am thinking I need two prope

Answer 1

I find marking the property as readonly cleaner than the above answers. I believe vb14 is required.

Private _Name As String

Public ReadOnly Property Name() As String
    Get
        Return _Name
    End Get
End Property

This can be condensed to

Public ReadOnly Property Name As String
