How to raise events?

See more:

VB

Hello I have an interesting bit of code which I am trying to fix but the error im getting is from a C# to VB.net conversion.

Error	1	'Public Event CurrentPath(hive As String, path As String)' is an event, and cannot be called directly. Use a 'RaiseEvent' statement to raise an event.	C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Registry Cleaner VB.NET\Form1.vb	287	9	VTRegScan

the code in question is:

_RegScan.CurrentPath += New cRegScan.CurrentPathDelegate(AddressOf RegScan_CurrentPath)

in the code _RegScan is :

Private _RegScan As cRegScan 'which is a different class within the project.

currentpath is :

Public Event CurrentPath As CurrentPathDelegate 

which leads to currentpathdelegate which is :

Public Delegate Sub CurrentPathDelegate(ByVal hive As String, ByVal path As String)

The last section of this code that i can give information about is RegScan_CurrentPath which is a private sub :

Private Sub RegScan_CurrentPath(ByVal hive As String, ByVal path As String)
           _sHive = hive
           _sPath = path
       End Sub

within the private sub hive and path are strings and _sHive , _sPath = ""


For this question how might I correct this problem to raise the event?

thank you in advance!!





The code in C# is like so....

private void InitFields()
       {
           _RegScan = new cRegScan();
           _RegScan.CurrentPath += new cRegScan.CurrentPathDelegate(RegScan_CurrentPath);
           _RegScan.KeyCount += new cRegScan.KeyCountDelegate(RegScan_KeyCount);
           _RegScan.LabelChange += new cRegScan.LabelChangeDelegate(RegScan_LabelChange);
           _RegScan.MatchItem += new cRegScan.MatchItemDelegate(RegScan_MatchItem);
           _RegScan.ProcessChange += new cRegScan.ProcessChangeDelegate(RegScan_ProcessChange);
           _RegScan.ProcessCompleted += new cRegScan.ProcessCompletedEventHandler(RegScan_ProcessCompleted);
           _RegScan.ScanComplete += new cRegScan.ScanCompleteDelegate(RegScan_ScanComplete);
           _RegScan.SubScanComplete += new cRegScan.SubScanCompleteDelegate(RegScan_SubScanComplete);
           _RegScan.ScanCount += new cRegScan.ScanCountDelegate(RegScan_ScanCount);
           _RegScan.StatusChange += new cRegScan.StatusChangeDelegate(RegScan_StatusChange);
          
       }

public event CurrentPathDelegate CurrentPath;

private void RegScan_CurrentPath(string hive, string path)
       {
           _sHive = hive;
           _sPath = path;
       }

#region Delegates

       public delegate void StatusChangeDelegate(string label);
       public delegate void ProcessChangeDelegate();
       public delegate void ScanCountDelegate(int count);
       public delegate void ScanCompleteDelegate();
       public delegate void SubScanCompleteDelegate(string id);
       #endregion

I hope I have provided enough for a solution thank you..
