title: vb.net, cannot call event directly
body: <p>I have a piece of code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>innerchannel.Closing += Function(sender, e)
                          RaiseEvent Closing(sender, e)
  
                          End Function
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There's an issue with </p>
  
  <pre><code>innerchannel.Closing 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in which VisualStudio is telling me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Public Event Closing(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)' is an event, and cannot be called directly. Use a 'RaiseEvent' statement to raise an event.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I repair this to work accordingly?</p>
