In VB.NET, can I mark a function as deprecated?

Is there an ability in VB.NET to deprecate code? I know that in C# there are 'attributes', and tags in java; is there anything similar in VB.NET, other than leaving a 'todo:...?

There are attributes in VB.NET too:

• https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.obsoleteattribute(v=vs.110).aspx
• http://www.vb-helper.com/howto_net_obsolete_attribute.html

Looks like this (before your function)

<Obsolete("This method is deprecated, use XXXX instead.")> _ 

And since VB.NET 10 (.NET 4 and later) we no longer need the underscore.

<Obsolete("This method is deprecated, use XXXX instead.")>

Use the [Obsolete] Attribute.
