I am trying to call one EventHandler method from another. For example, I would like to link Logout button with form exit, so I have this code:

private void FormMain_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
    if (MessageBox.Show("Bla, bla?", "Logout", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Warning) == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        e.Cancel = false;
    }
    else
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}

and I want to call it from this event:

private void btnLogOut_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{            
    FormMain_FormClosing(null, 'not sure what goes here');
}

    Handling the event and asking for confirmation are seperate things:

    private static bool UserConfirmedToLogout() 
    {
        return MessageBox.Show("Bla, bla?", "Logout", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Warning) == DialogResult.OK;
    }
    
    private void FormMain_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Cancel = !UserConfirmedToLogout();
    }
    
    private void btnLogOut_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {            
        Close();
    }
    

    When Close() is called, the FormClosing event is fired too.
