C# Constructor that takes in two Action<objects> Fails -

there might easier way i'm doing i'm curious why can't call constructor 2 functions.

i'm trying write sort of sequencer wrapper doe step1, kick off step2, kick off step3, etc.

the program fails when call constructor stepmonitor
error i'm getting: cannot implicitly convert type 'void' 'system.action

    static void main(string[] args)     {         step1 step1 = new step1();         step2 step2 = new step2();         stepmonitor stepmonitor = new stepmonitor(step1.step1go(), step2.step2go()); // fails here       }      public class stepmonitor     {         #region function monitor         action<object> _objecttomonitor;         #endregion         #region function execute on event         action<object> _objecttoexecute;         #endregion         #region constructor         public stepmonitor(action<object> objecttomonitor, action<object> objecttoexecute)         {             _objecttomonitor = objecttomonitor;             _objecttoexecute = _objecttoexecute;             _objecttomonitor += _objecttoexecute;                     }         #endregion     }  public class step1 {     public event eventhandler stepcompletedhandler;    // event     public step1()     {      }     public void step1go()     {         console.writeline("enter string step1");         string step1 = console.readline();         triggerstepcompleted();     }     protected virtual void triggerstepcompleted()    // trigger. foo calls raise event     {         // make copy more thread-safe         eventhandler handler = stepcompletedhandler;          if (handler != null)         {             // invoke subscribed event-handler(s)             handler(this, null);         }     } }  public class step2 {     public event eventhandler stepcompletedhandler;    // event     public step2()     {      }     public void step2go()     {         console.writeline("enter string step2");         string step2 = console.readline();         triggerstepcompleted();     }     protected virtual void triggerstepcompleted()    // trigger. foo calls raise event     {         // make copy more thread-safe         eventhandler handler = stepcompletedhandler;          if (handler != null)         {             // invoke subscribed event-handler(s)             handler(this, null);         }     } } 

you're calling step1go , step2go - whereas want using method group conversion create action delegates:

stepmonitor stepmonitor = new stepmonitor(step1.step1go, step2.step2go); 

additionally, methods don't take parameters, either need change stepmonitor accept action instead of action<object> or use anonymous function explicitly ignore parameter:

stepmonitor stepmonitor = new stepmonitor(_ => step1.step1go(),                                           _ => step2.step2go()); 

here _ somewhat-conventional name parameter ignored. use:

stepmonitor stepmonitor = new stepmonitor(ignored => step1.step1go(),                                           ignored => step2.step2go()); 

note none of related constructors specifically. you'd same problem @ moment if wrote:

action<object> action = step1.step1go(); 

whereas i'm suggesting should using 1 of these forms:

action action = step1.step1go; action<object> action = ignored => step1.step1go();
