.Net Jonesie - Old Dog, Old Trick

Friday, February 24, 2006

I've started working though the Hands-On-Labs for Windows Workflow Foundation today and in Lab 1, Excerise 1 (more about that later) I discovered something old that I had never existed before: Event Accessors.

Normally you would decalre an event like this:

1 public event EventHandler<CancelEventArgs> ValidateControls;

Using Event Accessors makes this look a lot more like a property:

1 public event EventHandler<CancelEventArgs> ValidateControls

2 {

3 add

4 {

6 }

7 remove

8 {

10 }

11 }

This could be useful to ... hmmm, I'm not exactly sure if I would use it, but I imagine some people would.

FYI, this also works in .Net 1.1. Not sure about VB though.
