Log4Net Loger initialization in VB.Net

Hi 

I am using LOG4Net to implement logging in my application. I used the follwing code to initiate looger in C#.
protected static readonly ILog logEntry = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(WindowsService));

What is the equivalent code in VB. How can i initiate Looger in VB.net for the class as above specified in C#
