vb.net - Handles Me.Event vs Handles MyBase.Event -

class baseclass     public event myevent(sender object, e eventargs) end class class derivedclass     inherits baseclass     sub derivedclasseventhandler(sender object, e eventargs) handles me.myevent         'do here     end sub end class 

is there difference between above , using handles mybase.myevent, per guidance here under heading handling events inherited base class?

with simple example, there's little difference. argue using handles mybase... it's clearer future readers of code know event comes from.

one potential reason preferring 1 or other in (unusual) situation of creating event same name in derived class - difference between me , mybase allows specific event you're handling:

class baseclass     public event myevent(sender object, e eventargs) end class class derivedclass     inherits baseclass      public shadows event myevent(sender object, e someothereventargs)      sub eventhandler(sender object, e eventargs) handles mybase.myevent      end sub      sub eventhandler(sender object, e someothereventargs) handles me.myevent      end sub end class
