Binding.BindingComplete Event

Definition

Occurs when the FormattingEnabled property is set to true and a binding operation is complete, such as when data is pushed from the control to the data source or vice versa.

public:
 event System::Windows::Forms::BindingCompleteEventHandler ^ BindingComplete;
public event System.Windows.Forms.BindingCompleteEventHandler BindingComplete;
public event System.Windows.Forms.BindingCompleteEventHandler? BindingComplete;
member this.BindingComplete : System.Windows.Forms.BindingCompleteEventHandler 
Public Custom Event BindingComplete As BindingCompleteEventHandler 

Event Type

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to handle the BindingComplete event.

// Represents a business object that throws exceptions when 
// invalid values are entered for some of its properties.

Remarks

This event is raised under any of the following conditions when FormattingEnabled is true:

  • Data from the data source is pushed onto the control property.

  • Data from the control property is pushed onto the data source.

This event is raised at the completion of these operations, independent of the completion status. For example, if a binding operation binds a null value to a Value property, an exception is thrown, but the BindingComplete event still occurs. The handler of this event can take the appropriate action, based on the success, error, or exceptions in the binding process, by examining the BindingCompleteState property of the BindingCompleteEventArgs parameter.

For more information about handling events, see Handling and Raising Events.
