Compiler Error C3736

'event': must be a method or, in the case of managed events, optionally a data member

Native and COM events must be methods. .NET events can also be data members.

The following sample generates C3736:

// C3736.cpp
struct A {
   __event int e();
};

struct B {
   int f;   // C3736
   // The following line resolves the error.
   // int f();
   B(A* a) {
      __hook(&A::e, a, &B::f);
   }
};

int main() {
}
