Remove Handler Setup By Lambda Expressions?
Jul 2, 2011
How to remove a handler set up by a lambda expression? According to this MSDN article, lambda expression should be assigned to variables which should be used to define handler operators. So far, I have used lambda expessions w/o variables.
For instance, the following works:
Private Sub ScaleObjectInit1(ByVal objSrc As NumericUpDown, ByVal objTgt As FrameworkElement) ...
AddHandler Me.upDnScale.ValueChanged, Sub (sender As Object, e As Object) ScaleObject1 (sender, e, objTgt)
End Sub
Private Sub ScaleObject1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Object, ByVal objTgt As FrameworkElement)
[Code] .....

I see lambda expressions have become a very useful tool at some points in the language. I've been using them a lot and most of the time they fit really nice and make the code shorter and perhaps clearer.
Now.. I've seen some , I would say excessive use of them. Some people like them so much that try to use them everywhere they can.. Some times the C# code looks like a functional language. Other factors against are the cost using reflection by lambda and that not friendly to debugging.I would like to hear opinions about how good and how code clear it is to use more or less the lambda expressions. (this is not the better example, but let's say it was the trigger)I was writing the following code. The use of the delegate { return null; } helps me avoid having to ask if the event is null or not every time I have to use it.
public delegate ContactCellInfo.Guest AddGuest();
public event AddGuest GuestRequest = delegate { return null;}
Im using resharper and the wise resharper( even it some times literaly eats the memory) made me the following suggestion
public delegate ContactCellInfo.Guest AddGuest();
public event AddGuest GuestRequest = () => null;
At my point of view the code using the delegate looks clearer. I am not against the Lamdba expression just would like to hear some advices on how and when to use them.

Functionally, is there any difference (apart from syntax onbviously) between lambda expressions in C# and VB.Net?EDIT: following up on CraigTP's answer: any references to the situation in .Net 4?EDIT: I'm asking because I'm used to C#, but for a next project the customer asks VB.Net. We're not a priori against that. We realize that most language constructs are supported in both languages. However, we're particularly fond of the way C# implements lambda expressions. We would like to have an overview of the differences with VB.Net
EDIT: accepted CraigTP's answer for pointing out what I currently consider the most important difference.
So to summarize: VB.Net 9 does not support multiline statements in a lambda expression, and a lambda must always return a value. Both of these issues are addressed in VB.Net 10

Async Sub like this: Dim f As Func(Of Task) = Async Sub() End Sub Produces compiler error: error BC36670: Nested sub does not have a signature that is compatible with delegate 'System.Func(Of System.Threading.Tasks.Task)'.Equivalent C# code compiles fine:
Func<Task> f = async () => { };Rewriting Async Sub into Async Function make code works.
Why does Async Sub() is not convertible to delegate types with return value of type Task?

I just came across a bug in NHibernate which happens to already be raised: [url] I'm not sure if this applies to anything else other than enums but when using a Lambda from VB, it looks different to the same Lambda from C#.
C#:
Where(x => x.Status == EmployeeStatus.Active)
VB
Where(Function(x) x.Status = EmployeeStatus.Active)
They are the same as far as I'm aware? (My VB isn't great) If I put a break point on the same line of code, where the above code is passed into. In C# I get: On the same line when VB version is passed in, I get: Is this something I'm doing wrong? Is the result's the same, just displayed different between C#/VB?
Edit: Ok so they are displayed different, but they can't be the same because NHibernate cannot handle it. The C# version is handled perfectly fine by NHibernate, the VB version resolves in the following exception being thrown: [Code]

I'm trying to expand my programming horizons, and LINQ and Lambda Expressions have popped up as some apparently very important topics. As I began reading articles on Lambda Expressions, it appears that Lambda Expressions are built heavily on the concept of Delegates. As I began reading articles on Delegates, it appears that Delegates are built heavily on the concept of callback functions. As I began reading articles on callback functions, .[code]Can anyone out there give me a simple, clear, concise definition of callback functions? Do I need to learn C or C++ to fully understand these concepts? Maybe a better question is: What do I need to know to be able to understand Delegates (they've always somewhat mystified me) and LINQ/Lambda Expressions (I haven't looked into these too much, but they're mystifying, too)?I don't mind doing research, but google searches are giving me way too much information.

To streamline code, I increasingly rely on lambda expressions. But I may have hit against the wall in the attempt of removing an event handler set by a lambda expression. This really eludes me. The code below shows two samples: Alt1 uses a plain lambda expression as delegate and works fine: the object size increases as the numeric control varies. However, the drawback is that the handler cannot be removed:
RemoveHandler Me.upDnScale.ValueChanged, Sub(sender As Object, e As Object) ScaleObject1(sender, e, objTgt)
According to this MSDN article, a variable should be used to set/remove lambda based handlers. Alt2 shows a couple of attempts, but none works.

I have a type lets call it "MyType". I have a List(Of MyType). Here is what i'm doing: MyList.Sum(Function(x) x.MyFieldToTotal) "MyFieldToTotal" is a decimal. For the life of me i can't figure out why x above is an object rather than a type of "MyType". Shouldn't Type Inferencing be working in this case? Even in intellisense i get "selector as System.Func(Of MyType) as Decimal"

Can someone who is using a 64 bit machine help me pintpoint this crash to either the VS2010 IDE itself or one of the plugins I have installed?
It's the code fragment below. When I copy & paste it into the Main() function of a new VB.Net console app on my Win7 64 bit machine, the VS IDE crashes and dies onthe spot, every time I try it.
Doing exactly the same on a 32 bit XP machine, nothing abnormal happens.
The 64 bit machine does have some IDE plug-ins installed, the biggest of which is DevExpress (the free version), so i think either one of those or the fact that the IDE is running on 64 bit must be the culprit.
This is the code. The static variable can also be made a module-level variable, with the same result.

I'm still trying to get my head around the whole "Lambda Expressions" thing.
Can anyone here give me an example ordering by multiple columns using VB.Net and Linq-to-SQL using a lambda expression?
Here is my existing code, which returns an ordered list using a single-column to order the results:
Return _dbContext.WebCategories.OrderBy(Function(c As WebCategory) c.DisplayOrder).ToList
Note: The WebCategory object has a child WebPage object (based on a foreign key). I'd like to order by WebPage.DisplayOrder first, then by WebCategory.DisplayOrder.
I tried chaining the order bys, like below, and though it compiled and ran, it didn't seem to return the data in the order I wanted.
Return _dbContext.WebCategories.OrderBy(Function(c As WebCategory) c.DisplayOrder).OrderBy(Function(c As WebCategory) c.WebPage.DisplayOrder).ToList

I have an untyped dataset returned from my WebService. The user wants to dynamically construct a query referencing tables and columns and specifying values to test for.I have looked at Lambda Expressions and the Expressions.Expression Namespace. I think these provide the answer I'm looking for, but I'm not certain how to go about contructing the linq expressions to extract the datarows I'm looking for.
I plan on limiting the result to one datatable that the query will result in and i"ll provide the joins from the user's constructs.For a simple example I have a DataTable with (n) rows called "Table", and in it there is a computed column called "b_IsActive" that has the expression "Convert(IsActive, 'System.Boolean')". The user wants to retrieve all rows in "Table" where field "b_IsActive" is true.

I ma using DevExpress controls (which doesnt matter for this example). I have a lookupEdit control and I never want the EditValue_Changed event to fire. Can I use RemoveHandler to do this? If so can someone give me a code example of doing this? Should I put RemoveHandler in the load event of the user control I am creating? Or does it go in the EditValue_Changed event of the lookupControl?

I'm writing a small 2D engine that uses Lua to control it. I've been setting events up in between the Lua and the VB.net for the past little while here. The problem, I've realized, is that is that I can't seem to remove the events which is screwing up quite a few things (because they are being called when they should be done with). To fix this, I wanted to add some kind of way to remove the specific event handler.
I know how to add an event handler:AddHandler Button1.Click, AddressOf Button1Clicked
But with this in mind, is their a way to remove a specific event handler in the VB.net? I didn't explain this very well: If I have this:

When I've used the remove handler method in my code, I get this warning:The 'AddressOf' expression has no effect in this context because the method argument to 'AddressOf' requires a relaxed conversion to the delegate type of the event. Assign the 'AddressOf' expression to a variable, and use the variable to add or remove the method as the handler.Why do I have to assign the "AddressOf" expression to a variable?

however, the handler may also be:
AddHandler COMTimeout.Elapsed, AddressOf SecondTimeoutEvent
I now need to remove the handler, is there a way to do it without knowing the name or do I need to keep track of which handler as been assigned?

I am having a problem with the cellvalidating event constantly firing when the datagrid is refreshed (since the trigger that fires the event is the originally selected cell losing focus).I would like to remove the event handler for this at certain points of my code so that it does not fire but the examples I have come across on MSDN don't appear to do anything, so I guess I must be doing something wrong.[code]

to know if a control have any handler. I have a dgv and in the editing control Showing event i add an event handler like this: VB AddHandler e.Control.KeyPress, AddressOf Grid_KeyPress_NumbersOnly This event it's added in some of the columns and for the other ones i remove it... The problem it's when the user, for example selects 3 columns where the event it's added, then if the user selects one where the event it's removed, it doesn't remove all handlers... So i have 2 solutions, when removing i put multiple removes or the other check if the event handler it's added doesn't add again. I prefer this second option, but i don't know how to check if the event it's added?

remove an event handler from within the event handler?
I have a class that gets data from a hand scanner. When the scan is complete and the data is validated, the class fires a custom "ScanComplete" event and returns the data in a custom EventArgs.
In the calling program, I'm creating an instance of the scanning class and adding a handler for the "ScanComplete" event. In the event handler I get the data that was scanned and then remove the handler.
It seems to be working but it feels wrong to remove the handler while I'm running inside the handler. Will this cause a problem?
