TreeNodeEventHandler Delegate

Definition

Represents the method that will handle the TreeNodeCollapsed, TreeNodeDataBound, TreeNodeExpanded, or TreeNodePopulate event of the TreeView control.

C#
public delegate void TreeNodeEventHandler(object sender, TreeNodeEventArgs e);

Parameters

sender
Object

The source of the event.

e
TreeNodeEventArgs

A TreeNodeEventArgs that contains the event data.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the TreeNodeEventHandler delegate to register an event-handling method programmatically.

Remarks

When you create a TreeNodeEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about event-handler delegates, see Handling and Raising Events.

Extension Methods
