hi,

In Ledger Journal Trans table i need to add some code in Insert method . So, i can use "Copy event handler method" to achieve the requirement Pre or Post.

Shall i achieve the same thing with the use of CoC ? 

If yes, then which option is most reliable ?

Please give me more shed on this

    You can achieve it using both approaches. COC has its own advantage where you can  access public and protected methods, and variables of the base class.

    Thanks Sukrut,

    "Copy event handler method" option is available only in Table?

    Please give me more shed on this

    You can get answer to your question by putting  little efforts at your end . Just navigate in visual studio open different objects and see if the option is available.

    Hi @rp@n,

    If you want to create CoC method, you need to create an extension class manually, copy the original method signature and put it to call, and remove default values (there is no option to copy method as in the case of event handlers).

    One more advantage of CoC is that you control that extension method signature matches original during compilation and it's quite hard to make a mistake in method parameters. In the case of event handlers, you need to retrieve parameters from the args class by name and if the parameter with the name doesn't exist you will not know this. Before I had a couple of cases when MS changed parameter name from name without underscore to name with an underscore at the beginning and it broke event handler completely, but it was compiled perfectly fine. Although this kind of change is now considered as breaking and should not happen anymore, I still under impression that using CoC is much safer and clean from a development point of view.
