delegate thru an interface

spin vector9-Mar-06 3:17

I am defining an interface to a real-time engine. Based on inputs to the engine the engine may fire events. How do I build the code so that the eventhandler is on the other side of the interface from the engine? That is, my subscriber(s) is external to the engine. Seems to me I have to declare something in the interface specification.

Thanks.

If you are already defining an interface, events arent necessary. You simply call the methods on the interface and let the implemeter handle them. IMO better than the event approach, and alot faster due to direct calls. Smile | :)

Events in an interface is normally so the interface can 'notify' to the interface user.

Consider this diagram:

user <- interface -> engine

Based on your last e-mail, the target of the event within the engine is on the interface. How is it that the user is notified?

I think he's confused about your use of the word interface - he's thinking of an interface such as IDisposable, or ISerializable (though obviously defined by you), and it sounds like you mean interface as object layer that hides the engine.

Off the top of my head, I can think of two ways to do this:

1) Cascading events - When the interface is loaded, it subscribes to events in the engine. When the user connects to the interface, it then subscribes to events in the interface. When the engine raises the event, the interface gets notified to it's handler. It then raises the event the user subscribed to.

These cascading events will work, though performance may be a concern to you. It wasn't in an app I'm working on (at least in this area), and the events needed to be bubbled up quite a few layers, with each layer doing something with the event, so this mechanism worked fairly well.

2) Have a method defined in your interface that takes in a delegate as a parameter of the correct delegate type to the event you want to subscribe to. This interface method will use this delegate to subscribe to the engine event. When the engine raises the event, the user is notified without the interface getting in the way.

<br />
// in interface<br />
public void ConnectEvent(EventHandler h)<br />
{<br />
  engine->TheEvent += h;<br />
}<br />
<br />
...<br />
// in user<br />
  interface->ConnectEvent(new EventHandler(user_EventHandler));<br />

I did something like this a while ago, but I don't remember why or how well it worked out.

it's used for debugging. You put one prior to where you have a peice of code that isn't working. When the program gets to that point it stops running and goes to the IDE where you can step through the code one line at a time to see what's going on.

HI all,

i have created an MDI Application
i have created some threads in one of the forms
now when all the threads finish their processing
an exception is thrown by the application saying
"System.NullReferenceException
Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

and this exception is thrown by the main MDI form

i don't know what's going wrong where.

It will be great if some one could tell me the solution to this problem

Thanks,
Pramod

It would be usefull to post some code, run in debug and see where it happens.
At least check the Stack Trace in the exception and show the code from the method where it happens.

i have created all the threads on the click of a button
when the control returns after finishing all the threads
the exception is raised

Why is this exception raised?
is there anything to be done when the threads are finished with processing
and the control is returned from where they were spawned?

Thanks,
Pramod

There is as such nothing special you need to do with threads except be really really careful with race conditions and deadlocks.

XIUnin had some really good advise. The exception will tell you exactly where you use a null reference (or - if you do not do it yourself then where you call something else with bogus parameters resulting in that code using the null reference).

If you have problems following the advice then please indicate you do not know how to follow it (with detrails on why you get stuck and what you tried).

Also try to be more detailed. For example you write "when the control returns"... Well, threads do not return control. They keep running until terminated. So what do you mean? Do you call Join or what?

hi..
i have some question ..
first one is i want to know when the class is loaded first time in c#?
is it at compile time or at run time? and how?
and where the memory is allocated to the class?
and when the memory allocated for static fields ? and how?

Hi
Every static variable is stored on the heap, regardless of whether it's declared within a reference type or a value type. There is only one slot in total no matter how many instances are created. (There don't need to be any instances created for that one slot to exist though.) Note that this heap is separate from the normal garbage collected heap - it's known as a "high frequency heap", and there's one per application domain.
