Steve,
| Public Class BeforeDeleteEventArgs
| Inherits EventArgs
| Private m_Cancel As Boolean
| Public Property Cancel() As Boolean
| Public Class MyControl
|
| Public Event BeforeDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
| System.EventArgs)
Rather then define my own EventArgs & Delegate to handle canceling an Event,
I would recommend using System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs &
System.ComponentModel.CancelEventHandler.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ClassTopic.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ClassTopic.asp
Something like:
| Public Class MyControl
|
| Public Event BeforeDelete As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventHandler
Then I would be consistent with other events that are able to be canceled.
Such as the Form.Closing event.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...osingTopic.asp
I would not attempt to be "clever" and pass a CancelEventArg object for an
EventArg parameter, as any user (other developer) of your event would not
realize they needed to downcast the EventArg parameter to a CancelEventArg
to use it.
Hope this helps

| Hi Oleg
|
| I know I can create my own class inherited from the EventArgs class, but
how
| do I add my custom property so that it is visible from outside the
control?
|
| The code I currently have:
|
| ' Control Class
| Public Class MyControl
|
| Public Event BeforeDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
| System.EventArgs)
|
| Private Sub DeleteRecord()
| '// Raise the event to make sure that it is ok to delete the row
| Dim oArgs As New BeforeDeleteEventArgs
| RaiseEvent BeforeDelete(Me.Grid, oArgs)
| If oArgs.Cancel.Equals(False) Then
| ' Delete the records
| End If
| End Sub
|
| Public Class BeforeDeleteEventArgs
| Inherits EventArgs
| Private m_Cancel As Boolean
| Public Property Cancel() As Boolean
| Get
| Return m_Cancel
| End Get
| Set(ByVal Value As Boolean)
| m_Cancel = Value
| End Set
| End Property
| End Class
|
| End Class
|
| In the form I want to do the following:
|
| Private Sub MyControlBeforeDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
| System.EventArgs) Handles myControl.BeforeDelete
| e.Cancel = True ' I CANNOT see the Cancel property, how do I raise the
| event so I see the properties
| ' of the BeforeDeleteEventArgs class.
| End Sub
|
| If I change the event so it uses the custom class I can do this:
| Private Sub MyControlBeforeDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
| BeforeDeleteEventArgs) Handles myControl.BeforeDelete
| e.Cancel = True ' I CAN see the property if I do this, but I want to use
| the System.EventArgs as the parameter
| End Sub
|
| In the form I want to use the System.EventArgs, not the custom class I
have
| created. How would I go about doing this?
|
| Regards,
| Steve.
