The role of the delegate in Events

C#

Hi all,

I have been studying events in C# because I want to create more modular programs where my classes don't have to be aware of my forms. The idea is that my forms will be updated via events raised by instances of my classes.

Having studied this via a few different books I think I'm getting to grips with the concept in general. I can certainly create classes that can raise events, and I can subscribe to those events and take appropriate actions. However, I remain confused about the role of the delegate in the events process:

delegate void MyEventHandler();

class Test
{
    public event MyEventHandler Results;

    public void OnResults()
    {
        if (Results != null)
            Results();
    }
}

namespace EventsExperiments
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Handler()
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Event received by program object");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Test event1 = new Test();
            event1.Results += Handler;

            event1.OnResults();
        }
    }
}

I understand that in the above short excerpt I have created a delegate called MyEventHandler() which is going to act as a reference (like a pointer) for the events. Then I have created a class called Test and I have given it the ability to raise events that the delegate will accept.

MY QUESTION:

1.
With regard to the delegate, is it correct to say that each time an event is raised, this delegate will point to the handler method of the object that subscribes? And, if there are multiple objects subscribing to the event, then the delegate will point to each one of their subscribed handler methods in turn?
If this understanding is correct, then where do I see the reassignment of the delegate in my code?

Perhaps I am fundamentally misunderstanding something, and in that case I hope someone can set me straight.

Cheers!
