• juanborde How are delegates cleaned up?

  If I expose a delegate for classes to connect to, and the class goes out of scope, is the delegate automatically decremented. Or does the target property of the delegate keep the class in scope and prevent it from being cleaned up in the first place Example... class Lottery { YouWinHandler YouWinEvent; } class Person { Person(Lottery lotto) { lotto.YouWinEvent += new YouWinHandler(OnIWin); } void OnIWin() ...Show All
