BUG: Events that are raised by using the RaiseEvent statement in a constructor are not handled (832793)

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.
2. Use Visual Basic 2005 or Visual Basic .NET to create a Console Application project. By default, the Module1.vb file is created.
3. Replace the existing code in the Module1.vb file with the following code:

   Module Module1
   
      Sub Main()
         Call TestEventsInConstructor()
      End Sub
      Private WithEvents m_obj As MyEventClass
      Public Sub TestEventsInConstructor()
         m_obj = New MyEventClass() '<- This event does not raise.
         Call m_obj.MyMethod()           '<- This event raises.
      End Sub
      Private Sub m_obj_MyEvent(ByVal strSource As String) _
        Handles m_obj.MyEvent
         MsgBox("Event raised from " & strSource)
      End Sub
   
      Friend Class MyEventClass
         Public Event MyEvent(ByVal strSource As String)
         Public Sub New()
            RaiseEvent MyEvent("MyEventClass.New")
         End Sub
         Public Sub MyMethod()
            RaiseEvent MyEvent("MyEventClass.InternalMethod")
         End Sub
      End Class
   
   End Module

4. On the Debug menu, click Start to build and to run the application. You receive a message box that contains the following text:
   Event raised from MyEventClass.InternalMethod
