C# - anonymous functions and event handlers

Question

I have the following code:

public List FindStepsByType(IWFResource res)  
{  
    List retval = new List&         


        

Answer 1

No, it will not be removed automatically. In this sense, there's not a difference between an anonymous method and a "normal" method. If you want, you should manually unsubscribe from the event.

Actually, it'll capture other variables (e.g. res in your example) and keep them alive (prevents garbage collector from collecting them) too.
