I need help converting a c# anonymous method to vb.net

Question

provider.OptionsSet += delegate
{
  provider.FinishedLoading();
};

Nice demonstration how converters get this dramatically wrong, they have for a long time. The += operator isn't VB.NET syntax, AddHandler is required to subscribe events. Where the Do comes from is anybody's guess. The lambda can't be a Function, except for the very rare cases where the delegate type returns a value. Three bugs in one line, you don't stand a chance. You need VS2010 to write a Sub lambda. Like this:

Module Module1
    Sub Main()
        Dim obj As New Test
        AddHandler obj.example, Sub(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
                                    '' etc...
                                End Sub
    End Sub
End Module

Class Test
    Public Event example As EventHandler
End Class

For earlier versions, you'll need a little non-anonymous helper method. Like this:

    AddHandler obj.example, AddressOf helper
...
Sub helper(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    '' etc..
End Sub
