I've been trying to figure out how to add another variable to "my" delegate
for my callback function - but after hours of searching the net I have not been able to understand how it's done :-(

So here is my question:
How to I expand the code below to add another variable (I can do that In the delegate statement [public delegate sub SetText...]without problems but then i can not pass it to the delegate when I create it[Dim d as new SetText...] ???)

Thanks for any inputs :)

VB

Delegate Sub SetTextCallback(ByVal [text] As String)



   Public Sub SetPRGMessageText(ByVal [text] As String)
       ' InvokeRequired required compares the thread ID
       ' If the creator thread of the control is different then the caller Thread
       ' this Sub will be called by cretor thread of the control
       If MenuStrip_Main.InvokeRequired Then
           Dim d As New SetTextCallback(AddressOf SetPRGMessageText) ' this is the call back to [SetPRGMessageText]using the creator
           Me.Invoke(d, New Object() {[text]})
       Else
           Me.ToolStripTxB_Message.Text = [text]
       End If
   End Sub

Do you always want the extra parameter, or just sometimes?

You should just be passing the additional parameter into the invoke after you're done adding it to your signature.

So, this:

VB

Me.Invoke(d, New Object() {[text]})

Becomes:

VB

Me.Invoke(d, New Object() {[text], [text2]})

Something like that.

Update:

Here's a snippet that would work, with either syntax you can call invoke...

VB

Public Class Form1

    Delegate Sub SetTextCallback(ByVal A As String, ByVal B As String)

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim d As New SetTextCallback(AddressOf Method)

        Invoke(d, "A", "B")
        Invoke(d, New Object() {"One", "Two"})
    End Sub

    Private Sub Method(ByVal A As String, ByVal B As String)
        Trace.Write(String.Format("{0} {1}", A, B))
    End Sub
End Class
