Question

I wish to create a custom EventHandler that can have any number of objects as its parameters and the objects it gets isn’t known in advance.

I know I can pass it an Object[] but what I would like is something similar to

MyEventHandler someCustomEvent(Object obj1, Object obj2, Object obj3)

where the number of objects can be 0 or 10 if needed.

EDIT:

So thanks to the comments and answers I’ve got I’ve come to this,

public class FinishedEventArgs : EventArgs {
            public Object[] Args{ get; set; }
        }

protected void OnFinished(params Object[] args) {
            if(this.Finished != null) {
                this.Finished(this, new FinishedEventArgs() {
                    Args = args
                });
            }
        }

Does it look acceptable?

Answer 1

EventHandler is just a delegate.

You can create delegate like this:

public delegate void Foo(params object[] args);

And event:

public event Foo Bar;

You will end up with firing event like this:

Bar(1, "");

But, as @Kent Boogaart said, you should create events using EventHandler<TEventArgs>, so better approach would be creating class:

public class MyEventArgs : EventArgs
{
    public MyEventArgs(params object[] args)
    {
        Args = args;
    }

    public object[] Args { get; set; }
}

And event:

public event EventHandler<MyEventArgs> Bar2;

So you will fire event like this:

Bar2(this, new MyEventArgs(1, ""));
