> Sometimes I wonder whether anybody reads my posts. I suggested a solution involving WeakMethod four days ago that additionally extends the concept to non-method callbacks (requiring a small amount of extra effort from the client in those cases, but I think that is unavoidable. There is no way that the framework can determine the appropriate lifetime for a closure-based callback.)

I apologize about taking so long to reply to everyone's posts, but I've been busy at home.

Ian, it took me a while to do some research to understand WHY what you were suggesting was important; you're right about storing the object as well as the method/function separately, but I think that WeakMethod might solve that completely, correct?  Are there any cases where WeakMethod wouldn't work?

Thanks,
Cem Karan
