Override event but do not use call back for controls in inherited class

[Haroon07]

Hi,

I have a class in C# which receives data from the socket and inherits from Form. Whenever it receives data, it fires an event.

ReceivedDone += new ReceivedDoneEventHandler(MyClass.DataReceiveDone);

then I have following functions:

 
        public void DataReceiveDone(object sender, ReceivedDoneNotifyEventArgs e){
 
            byte[] buffer;
            buffer = new byte[e.Data.Length]; 
            e.Data.CopyTo(buffer, 0);
            DataReceived(buffer);
        }
 
 
 
       public virtual void DataReceived(byte[] bData)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("I am here");
        }
 
 

I expect the user of this class to override DataReceived() and use the data in inherited class. The problem is, if user creates new control and wants to assign bData, he must use Control.invoke in inherited class, for example:

lblReading.Invoke(new OnDataReceiveCallback(this.OnDataReceive), bData);

I want user of the class to do this in easy way like,
lblReading.Test = BitConverter.ToInt16(bData, 0);

Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Haroon.

Hi,

Sorry I dont know how to edit above question. So I am rewriting it with editing.
I have a class in C# which receives data from the socket and inherits from Form. Whenever it receives data, it fires an event.

ReceivedDone += new ReceivedDoneEventHandler(MyClass.DataReceiveDone);

then I have following functions:

public void DataReceiveDone(object sender, ReceivedDoneNotifyEventArgs e){

byte[] buffer;
buffer = new byte[e.Data.Length];
e.Data.CopyTo(buffer, 0);
DataReceived(buffer);
}



public virtual void DataReceived(byte[] bData)
{
MessageBox.Show("I am here");
}


I expect the user of this class to override DataReceived() and use the data in derived class. The problem is, if user creates new control and wants to assign bData, he must use Control.invoke in derived class, for example:

lblReading.Invoke(new OnDataReceiveCallback(this.OnDataReceive), bData);

I want user of the class to do this in easy way like,
lblReading.Test = BitConverter.ToInt16(bData, 0);

So only change is the word "derived" instead of inherited.
Any help?

Thanks in advance,
