C# Dynamic Event Subscription

Question

How would you dynamically subscribe to a C# event so that given a Object instance and a String name containing the name of the event, you subscribe to that event and do some

Answer 1

Do you mean something like:

//reflect out the method to fire as a delegate
EventHandler eventDelegate = 
   ( EventHandler ) Delegate.CreateDelegate(
       typeof( EventHandler ),    //type of event delegate
       objectWithEventSubscriber, //instance of the object with the matching method
       eventSubscriberMethodName, //the name of the method
       true );

This doesn't do the subscription, but will give to the method to call.

Edit:

Post was clarified after this answer, my example won't help if you don't know the type.

However all events in .Net should follow the default event pattern, so as long as you've followed it this will work with the basic EventHandler.
