Events under C# and .NET

Could someone recommend an indepth book(s) or set of articles on Events,
Threading and Delegates under C#?

We have run into a problem in which when an event was subscribed in code
that the program never returned from the event subscription. No errors were
thrown but the program just hung there. It was resolved by another member of
the team by moving the location of a System.Threadin g.Monitor class. This
solved the problem but I would like to find out more about the subject of
events, delegates and threads; and how to properly handle them.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi! How can I unregister all the events registered to a control? I have seen a piece of code in another thread, which gets all the registered handlers for a specific event. Let's say I have a CustomTextBox : TextBox, which has quite a lot of events... Do I put unregistering code for all the possible events in the Dispose method? Or is there another way?

Hi I use the following syntax to have events inherited from base to child classes which works nicely (virtual and override keyword on events). But I am wondering if it is a "supported" way of using events since I never saw it used anywhere in MSDN documentation/samples?! Or it will just break when I upgrade to .NET Framework 2.x in the coming years namespace MyNamespac public delegate void MyDel() public class MyBase public virtual...

I have the following code, which appears to be working. However it doesn't look right. The part I am wondering about is the logic in DisconnectEvents(). This logic creates a new delegate and then expects to find that delegate in the list of event handlers. What is the proper way of writing this? Regards, Bob Rundle

Hello! I am still transitioning from VB.NET to C#. I undertand the basic concepts of Delegates, more so of Events and somewhat understand AsyncCallback methods. But I need some clarification on when to use one over another? If anyone could provide any additional info, your comments, best practices, any good articles, specific examples, etc. Thank you

Hello, I'm studying a book on VB.net Win apps, and I'm reading a section on events and delegates and raising events. Is it just me, or is this not just subs dressed up as something else? I mean, for one, delegates point to subs, so when you call a delegate, why not just call the sub dierectly and not bother adding the extra code involved adding the delegate?

Hi, I am new to C# (with long year experience in C++) and I am a bit confused by the language construct of events. What is it I can do with events that I cannot do with delegates? At the moment it seems to me that Microsoft has developed similar functionality via two keywords. I do understand that an event offers better encapsulation as the underlying delegate is private, but is that all ? -- Regards

Hi, Here I mean "User" in the Programmer or Javascript sense. I merely wish to programmatically trigger an Event. It would be absolutely fantastic if there was a (Form level?) ONUSEREVENT() and a setEvent() function but, in the absence of this, is it not possible to use DOM to change an object's properties resulting in a state-change event? I have tried with ONCHANGE() and that only seems to work if the "interactive" user changes the...
