Problems with IEventReceiver in VB.NET

[Silbermünze]

Hello everyone!

I am quite new to Irrlicht.net, though I am following the Irrlicht project for quite some time.

I recently started to play around with the sample VB.NET application and extend it with GUI elements, which finally lead me to writing my own eventReceiver class, which I derived from IEventReceiver in analogy to the C++ GUI example.

The declaration of the calss looks like:

Code: Select all

Imports Irrlicht
Imports Irrlicht.Core

class MyEventReceiver 
   Inherits IEventReceiver


end class

Unfortunately the IDE reports me that the inherit is uncorrect, with the following message: "Classes can only inherit from other classes". This brings up the thought to me that IEventReceiver seems not to be a class.

Has anyone successfully solved that problem in .NET?
Am I doing something obviously wrong, that I can't see?

Thanks in advance

I have digged further into the problem and found out that this seems to be a VB.NET only problem. I managed to write a Event-handler class for C# which is functional without problems. Possibly something in the wrapper declaration of the IEventReceiver that VB.NET can't handle? Though this seems strange to me as the underlying runtime should be .NET in both cases and there should be no difference.

Try:

Class MyEventReceiver
Implements IEventReceiver

IEventReceiver is an interface, not a class.
