Re: what is wrong with this removehandler..?

Hi, I think I understand why it behaves how it behaves.
A new feature of VB9 allows you to AddHandler for methods with slightly
different signatures than signature of event is. However as I understand it
some hidden routing method/delegate (which routes event to method with
different signature) is created in compile time. And when you uses
RemoveHandler another one is created which results to RemoveHandler removing
handler which had been never attached. So, nothing happens and handler
attached via AddHanlder is still attached.
There are two ways how to prevent this behavior:
1) Is prior VB9 - ensure that method (handler) as EXACTLY same signature as
event (event delegate)
2) Add handler is some way like this
Dim HadlerDelegate = AddressOf MyMethod
AddHandler TheObject.Event, HandlerDelegate
then store HandlerDelegate somewhere and use it with RemoveHandler.
