HOW TO: Passing a function

Hello,

Thanks for reviewing my question. I am coming from a C++ background and would like to know how do you pass a function as a parameter to a function in C#? I am assume you must use a delegate.

void Func( (void *)() fn )
{
fn();
}

void Func2() {}

void main()
{
Func( Func2);
}

Many Thanks
Peter

Indeed.

For example:

using System;

class Test
{
delegate void Function();

static void ExecuteFunction (Function foo)
{
foo();
}

static void Main()
{
ExecuteFunction (new Function(PrintH ello));
}

static void PrintHello()
{
Console.WriteLi ne ("Hello");
}
}

I have an object that's passed in to a function as a parameter i.e public boolean getProjectTitle(ProjectHeader_DTO obj) {...} If I then call a method on this object inside the function i.e obj.setTitle("test") then using obj.getTitle() from outside the function it displays the property set correctly! But doing something like this inside the function doesn't - ProjectHeader_DTO x = new ProjectHeader_DTO();

Just spent a happy 10 mins trying to understand a function I wrote sometime ago. Then remembered that arguments are passed by reference, by default. Does the fact that this slowed me down indicate: a) That I don't know enough b) Passing arguments by ref is bad

Hi, In the attached example, I do understand that the references are not changed if an array is passed by Val. What I do not understand is the result of line 99 (If one can find this by line number) which is the last line of the following sub routine: ' procedure modifies elements of array and assigns ' new reference (note ByVal) Sub FirstDouble(ByVal array As Integer()) Dim i As Integer

I was under the assumption that if you pass an object as a param to a method and inside that method this object is changed, the object will stay changed when returned from the method because the object is a reference type? my code is not proving that.
