I added Assert.ByVal methods equivalent to Assert.That, but without the
offending overload. Note that there is no equivalent in the
AssertionHelper syntax (Expect) so you have to use Assert.ByVal if the
problem applies.

Title:
  Assert.That() doesn't like properties with scoped setters

Status in NUnit Test Framework:
  Triaged
Status in NUnit V2 Test Framework:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Public Class SomeClass
      Public Property BrokenProp() As String
          Get
              Return String.Empty
          End Get
          Private Set(ByVal value As String)
          End Set
      End Property
  End Class

  <TestFixture()> Public Class clsTestTask
      <Test()> Public Sub TestXyz()
          Dim obj As New SomeClass()
          Expect(obj.BrokenProp, EqualTo(String.Empty))
      End Sub
  End Class

  The above code produces a compiler error:
  Error 1 'Set' accessor of property 'BrokenProp' is not accessible.

  If the scoping wasn't applied to the setter on the property or the property
  was ReadOnly, the compile error goes away.

  This is a .NET 2.0 assembly, compiled with the Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

  NUnit 2.4.7 and prior did not experience this issue.

  BTW, I've also started a Google Group posting for this issue:

  SF Comment:
  More info... the equivalent scoped setter in C# does not have this problem.
  It arises solely with VB.
