raising events

Hi All,

I'm I correct that you cannot raise events in the New (or constructor)
procedure?

I believe so.
In order to catch an Event from an Object, you have to have a
reference to the object doing the Throwing. You won't have one
until the Object's constructor has completed.

What about static events?

You can raise events in the constructor. The problem is that you have to
1. create the object
2. add event handlers

As "create the object" includes the execution of the constructor, the first
handler can not be added before the constructor has been executed completely.
Consequently, no event handler will be called when the event is raised in
the ctor.

One exception:
1. Pass a delegate to the constructor
2. In the ctor, add the delegate to the event
3. raise the event

But, it's easier to simply invoke the delegate.

Yes. There are no handlers added at this time.

Suggestions on cross-posting this issue would be appreciated. I've got a C# .NET DLL (CLR v1.1) that raises events into its container. When the container is a .NET application, raising the events work everytime. When the container is Internet Explorer, raising the events work on some PCs, but generate the exception: "object does not match target type" on some other PCs.
