Answer 1

Here is an example Which can help you better to understand how to pass a function as a parameter.

Suppose you have Parent page and you want to open a child popup window. In the parent page there is a textbox that should be filled basing on child popup textbox.

Here you need to create a delegate.

Parent.cs // declaration of delegates public delegate void FillName(String FirstName);

Now create a function which will fill your textbox and function should map delegates

//parameters
public void Getname(String ThisName)
{
     txtname.Text=ThisName;
}

Now on button click you need to open a Child popup window.

  private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
  {
        ChildPopUp p = new ChildPopUp (Getname) //pass function name in its constructor

         p.Show();

    }

IN ChildPopUp constructor you need to create parameter of 'delegate type' of parent //page

ChildPopUp.cs

    public  Parent.FillName obj;
    public PopUp(Parent.FillName objTMP)//parameter as deligate type
    {
        obj = objTMP;
        InitializeComponent();
    }



   private void OKButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {


        obj(txtFirstName.Text); 
        // Getname() function will call automatically here
        this.DialogResult = true;
    }
