HelpEventHandler Delegate

Definition

Represents the method that will handle the HelpRequested event of a Control.

public delegate void HelpEventHandler(System::Object ^ sender, HelpEventArgs ^ hlpevent);
public delegate void HelpEventHandler(object sender, HelpEventArgs hlpevent);
public delegate void HelpEventHandler(object? sender, HelpEventArgs hlpevent);
type HelpEventHandler = delegate of obj * HelpEventArgs -> unit
Public Delegate Sub HelpEventHandler(sender As Object, hlpevent As HelpEventArgs)

Parameters

sender
Object

The source of the event.

hlpevent
HelpEventArgs

A HelpEventArgs that contains the event data.

Examples

The following example demonstrates handling the HelpRequested event to display custom Help content on a form containing four address fields. The HelpRequested event is raised either by pressing the F1 key with the focus in an address field, or by the using the context-sensitive Help button and clicking the Help cursor on an address field. The Handled property is set to true to indicate that the HelpRequested event is handled. The example also demonstrates storing the Help text in the Control.Tag property.

Remarks

When you create a HelpEventHandler 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 handling events with delegates, see Handling and Raising Events.

Extension Methods
