How to: Create a Custom Routed Event

  • مقالة

For your custom event to support event routing, you need to register a RoutedEvent using the RegisterRoutedEvent method. This example demonstrates the basics of creating a custom routed event.

Example

As shown in the following example, you first register a RoutedEvent using the RegisterRoutedEvent method. By convention, the RoutedEvent static field name should end with the suffix Event. In this example, the name of the event is Tap and the routing strategy of the event is Bubble. After the registration call, you can provide add-and-remove common language runtime (CLR) event accessors for the event.

Note that even though the event is raised through the OnTap virtual method in this particular example, how you raise your event or how your event responds to changes depends on your needs.

Note also that this example basically implements an entire subclass of Button; that subclass is built as a separate assembly and then instantiated as a custom class on a separate XAML page. This is to illustrate the concept that subclassed controls can be inserted into trees composed of other controls, and that in this situation, custom events on these controls have the very same event routing capabilities as any native WPF element does.

public class MyButtonSimple: Button
{
    // Create a custom routed event by first registering a RoutedEventID
    // This event uses the bubbling routing strategy
    public static readonly RoutedEvent TapEvent = EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent(
        "Tap", RoutingStrategy.Bubble, typeof(RoutedEventHandler), typeof(MyButtonSimple));

    // Provide CLR accessors for the event
    public event RoutedEventHandler Tap
    {
            add { AddHandler(TapEvent, value); }
            remove { RemoveHandler(TapEvent, value); }
    }

    // This method raises the Tap event
    void RaiseTapEvent()
    {
            RoutedEventArgs newEventArgs = new RoutedEventArgs(MyButtonSimple.TapEvent);
            RaiseEvent(newEventArgs);
    }
    // For demonstration purposes we raise the event when the MyButtonSimple is clicked
    protected override void OnClick()
    {
        RaiseTapEvent();
    }
}

Public Class MyButtonSimple
    Inherits Button

    ' Create a custom routed event by first registering a RoutedEventID
    ' This event uses the bubbling routing strategy
    Public Shared ReadOnly TapEvent As RoutedEvent = EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent("Tap", RoutingStrategy.Bubble, GetType(RoutedEventHandler), GetType(MyButtonSimple))

    ' Provide CLR accessors for the event
    Public Custom Event Tap As RoutedEventHandler
        AddHandler(ByVal value As RoutedEventHandler)
            Me.AddHandler(TapEvent, value)
        End AddHandler

        RemoveHandler(ByVal value As RoutedEventHandler)
            Me.RemoveHandler(TapEvent, value)
        End RemoveHandler

        RaiseEvent(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
            Me.RaiseEvent(e)
        End RaiseEvent
    End Event

    ' This method raises the Tap event
    Private Sub RaiseTapEvent()
        Dim newEventArgs As New RoutedEventArgs(MyButtonSimple.TapEvent)
        MyBase.RaiseEvent(newEventArgs)
    End Sub

    ' For demonstration purposes we raise the event when the MyButtonSimple is clicked
    Protected Overrides Sub OnClick()
        Me.RaiseTapEvent()
    End Sub

End Class

Tunneling events are created the same way, but with RoutingStrategy set to Tunnel in the registration call. By convention, tunneling events in WPF are prefixed with the word "Preview".
