Definition

Detaches an event handler from a COM object.

public:
 override void RemoveEventHandler(System::Object ^ target, Delegate ^ handler);
public override void RemoveEventHandler (object target, Delegate handler);
[System.Runtime.Versioning.SupportedOSPlatform("windows")]
public override void RemoveEventHandler (object target, Delegate handler);
override this.RemoveEventHandler : obj * Delegate -> unit
[<System.Runtime.Versioning.SupportedOSPlatform("windows")>]
override this.RemoveEventHandler : obj * Delegate -> unit
Public Overrides Sub RemoveEventHandler (target As Object, handler As Delegate)

Parameters

target
Object

The target object that the event delegate is bound to.

handler
Delegate

The event delegate.

Attributes

The event does not have a public remove accessor.

The handler that was passed in cannot be used.

Remarks

This method is similar to the EventInfo.RemoveEventHandler(Object, Delegate) method, except that it allows you to detach events from COM objects.

If target is a COM object, this method releases a delegate to an event by using the ComEventsHelper.Remove(Object, Guid, Int32, Delegate) method.

RemoveEventHandler facilitates unregistering COM event sinks that forward calls to corresponding managed delegates. It requires the following information:

  • The target object itself (target).

  • The GUID of the source interface.

  • The DispID of the method on the COM interface that corresponds to the specified event.

  • The delegate that would be invoked when the COM object triggers the corresponding event (handler).

RemoveEventHandler looks up the corresponding COM source interface (specified as the first parameter of the ComEventInterfaceAttribute.ComEventInterfaceAttribute(Type, Type) constructor). It then it looks up a method on the source interface whose name is identical to the event name. The value of GuidAttribute on the source interface is the GUID that is passed to ComEventsHelper.Remove(Object, Guid, Int32, Delegate); the value of DispIDAttribute on the method is the DispID value that is passed to ComEventsHelper.Remove(Object, Guid, Int32, Delegate).
