I have an instance of the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word in a variable
Application word;
Now I want to register a method for the Quit
Eventhandler.
word.Quit += onWordQuit;
The problem is, that there is also a method called Quit
. The compiler complains that
"Cannot assign to 'Quit' because it is a method group.
Reference 'Quit' is a 'method group'. The assignment target must be an assignable variable, property or indexer
I found this blog post from 2004 about this subject.
But when I cast Quit
like so:
(ApplicationEvents4_QuitEventHandler)word.Quit += onWordQuit;
I get the error
No overload for
Quit
matches delegate ApplicationEvents4_QuitEventHandler.
How can I register to the Quit
Event Handler in this case?
The way to register for the EventHandler in this case is (as Hans Passant and this post pointed out) is:
((ApplicationEvents4_Event)word).Quit += onWordQuit;
