Delegate

You can design the following types of VB .NET delegates:

To create a delegate at the namespace level, create a class with the <<Delegate>> stereotype, and add an operation with the <<Delegate>> stereotype to this class and define a visibility for this operation. This visibility becomes the visibility of the delegate

...
Public Delegate Function ActionOccurred () As Object
...

To create a delegate in a class, module, or structure, you just have to create an operation with the <<Delegate>> stereotype. In the following example, class Worker is inner to module Utilities. Both contain internal delegates designed as operations with the <<Delegate>> stereotype

...
Public Module Utilities
 Public Delegate Function NewWorker () As Object
 Public Class Worker
  Public Delegate Function WorkStarted () As Object
 End Class
End Module
