How to add Button.Click EventHandler?

[tom-corwin]

Hello!

Before I get to my question, let me say I am new to C#, but have an extensive VB.NET background.

I have a Button. I am trying to add an event handler to it in normal WinForms statements. When I do this, I receive the following error:

CS0029: Cannotimplicitly convert type 'System.EventHandler' to 'System.EventHandler<System.EventArgs>'

Here are samples of the code I am writing with, that are giving me such errors:

Form1.eto.cs:

cancelButton.Click += new EventHandler(cancelButton_Click); 'This line gives me the error.

Form1.cs:

        private void cancelButton_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

        }

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any suggestions?

Try this,

cancelButton.Click += (s, e) => cancelButton_Click(s, e);

Remove the new EventHandler part.  Eto.Forms doesn't use EventHandler, it uses EventHandler<EventArgs> for better generics support for handling and binding to events.

E.g. cancelButton.Click += cancelButton_Click;

Hope this helps!

Curtis.

What would the difference be in your example, and this one:
