raising a vb6 event using interop
- by Steve
Hi, I have a legacy VB6 component that I've imported into VS using tlbimp.exe to generate my interop assembly. The VB6 component defines an event that allows me to pass messages within VB6.
Public Event Message(ByVal iMsg As Variant, oCancel As Variant)
I would really like to be able to raise this even in my C# program, but its getting imported as an event, not a delegate or something else useful. So, I can only listen, but never fire. Does anyone know how to fire an event contained within VB6? The C# event looks like
[TypeLibType(16)]
[ComVisible(false)]
public interface __MyObj_Event
{
event __MyObj_MessageEventHandler Message;
}
I unfortunately cannot change the VB6 code. Thanks.
