Delegates</h1>
|
||
|
|
<p>Of course, callbacks can be used with <a class="el" href="doc_datatypes_funcptr.html">delegates</a> as well. Delegates are special function objects that holds a reference to an object and the method it should call on it. If this is exactly how the application should treat them, then the above example will work exactly the same and the application never needs to worry about whether the callback is actually a global function or a delegate object.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Sometimes however, it may be beneficial to break up the delegate, and have the application store the actual object and method separately, for example if the application should use a <a class="el" href="doc_adv_weakref.html">weak reference</a> to avoid keeping the object alive longer than desired. The following shows how to retrieve the internals of the delegate:</p>
