EventRegistrationToken Struct

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
Windows.Foundation
Edit

Represents a reference to a delegate that receives change notifications.

.NET When programming with .NET, this type is hidden. For advanced scenarios, use System.Runtime.InteropServices.WindowsRuntime.EventRegistrationToken instead.

C++/WinRT In the C++/WinRT language projection, this type appears as winrt::event_token.

public value class EventRegistrationToken
/// [Windows.Foundation.Metadata.ContractVersion(Windows.Foundation.FoundationContract, 65536)]
struct EventRegistrationToken

Remarks

When programming with .NET, this type is hidden and developers that need an event registration token for advanced event scenarios should use the System.Runtime.InteropServices.WindowsRuntime.EventRegistrationToken type. For most app code, you won't need EventRegistrationToken (or event registration tokens) at all, because the add/remove syntax for C# and Visual Basic languages enables the compiler to generate the registration tokens from a simpler syntax.

In the event subscription model, a delegate registers to receive change notifications from a specified object such as a collection. The EventRegistrationToken is used to remove the delegate as a subscriber of change notifications when notifications are no longer needed.

Fields

Value

The reference to the delegate. A valid reference will not have a value of zero.
