private string[] GetRoles()
{
    string[] foo = {"Test"};
    return foo;       
}

The above compiles, but…

private string[] GetRoles()
{
    return {"Test"};        
}

Does not.

Replacing it with:

return new string[] { "Test" };    

Will obviously compile though. Is this inconsistancy or am i being stupid, or am i just wrong :S.

    Attributed to @Luke:

    The first example is just shorthand array initialization syntax. The second example is simply not legal C# syntax.
