'Usage
Dim instance As CodeAttachEventStatement

CodeAttachEventStatement can be used to represent a statement that adds an event-handler delegate for an event. The Event property indicates the event to attach the event handler to. The Listener property indicates the event handler to attach.

The following example code demonstrates use of a CodeAttachEventStatement to attach an event handler with an event.

' Defines a delegate creation expression that creates an EventHandler delegate pointing to TestMethod. 
Dim createDelegate1 As New CodeDelegateCreateExpression(New CodeTypeReference("System.EventHandler"), New CodeThisReferenceExpression(), "TestMethod")

' Attaches an EventHandler delegate pointing to TestMethod to the TestEvent event. 
Dim attachStatement1 As New CodeAttachEventStatement(New CodeThisReferenceExpression(), "TestEvent", createDelegate1)

' A Visual Basic code generator produces the following source code for the preceeding example code: 

'     AddHandler TestEvent, AddressOf Me.TestMethod
