Re: When to use delegates

Hi there,

More of a general question, rather than an issue.

Basically, I'm wondering where and when I should be using delegates in
my applications? I obviously use events, so do use them, but I've
never once declared my own delegates in code.

So, am I missing out on something good? I understand them in theory,
but every example I see on the internet is trivial and stupid - I just
can't relate these to real-world business problems that I face and
seemingly manage to solve without them.

Can anyone give a good run down of them and any potential areas in my
designs that I should look to use them?

If there's a C question in here somewhere, it's eluded me.
Perhaps you want comp.programming? Or maybe a forum devoted to
the particular design framework you're fond of?
