Is it bad practice to write inline event handlers ?
For me, I prefer use it when I want to use a local variable in the event handler like the following:
I prefer this:
// This is just a sample
private void Foo()
{
Timer timer = new Timer() { Interval = 1000 };
int counter = 0; // counter has just this mission
timer.Tick += (s, e) => myTextBox.Text = (counter++).ToString();
timer.Start();
}
Instead of this:
int counter = 0; // No need for this out of Boo & the event handler
private void Boo()
{
Timer timer = new Timer() { Interval = 1000 };
timer.Tick += timer_Tick;
timer.Start();
}
void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
myTextBox.Text = (counter++).ToString();
}
