Casting Bug

The following cast is valid as it should be if GetSomeObject() truly is returning a
object of Type Class1.

 Dim b as Class1
 Dim c as Object

 c = GetSomeObject()

 b = Class1(c)

However if the Code above is put inside of class 1, then suddenly it becomes impossible to cast to the type Class1 (Probably because its looking for a constructor to call instead of casting as it should be doing)

Is there something that I'm missing or is this just a known serious flaw that there is no way to
cast to the type Class1 from within Class1 ??
