Invoking WPF Dispatcher with anonymous method

Question

I just realized in a C# .Net 4.0 WPF background thread that this doesn\'t work (compiler error):

Dispatcher.Invoke(DispatcherPriority.Normal, delegate()
{
           


        

Answer 1

The 'Delegate' class is abstract so you have to provide the compiler with a type that is derived from it. Any class derived from Delegate will do but Action is usually the most appropriate one.
