Reading my C# book, it talks about using events/delegates (I am assuming I am right in thinking an event is the equivalent of a public delegate which has no member variable access) in a pattern liked by MS:
public delegate Something(object o, EventArgs e)
And then goes onto explain about EventArgs<T>
which basically removes the need for the delegate declaration:
public EventHandler<SomeEventArgs> events
Which is the same as (I think)
private delegate Something(object o, SomeEventArgs e);
public event Something events;
Is it a good idea to use EventHandler
? I can see why sending the object
could be useful, but not all the time - and a lot of the time, the EventArgs may just become annoying to deal with.
