A delegate
used to represent actions to invoke when a message is received.
The recipient is given as an input argument to allow message registrations to avoid creating
closures: if an instance method on a recipient needs to be invoked it is possible to just
cast the recipient to the right type and then access the local method from that instance.
public delegate void MessageHandler<in TRecipient,in TMessage>(TRecipient recipient, TMessage message) where TRecipient : class where TMessage : class;
type MessageHandler<'Recipient, 'Message (requires 'Recipient : null and 'Message : null)> = delegate of 'Recipient * 'Message -> unit
Public Delegate Sub MessageHandler(Of In TRecipient, In TMessage)(recipient As TRecipient, message As TMessage)
