ElapsedEventHandler Delegate

Definition

Represents the method that will handle the Elapsed event of a Timer.

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

Parameters

sender
Object

The source of the event.

e
ElapsedEventArgs

An ElapsedEventArgs object that contains the event data.

Examples

The following code example sets up an event handler for the Timer.Elapsed event, creates a timer, and starts the timer. The event handler has the same signature as the ElapsedEventHandler delegate. The event handler displays the SignalTime property each time it is raised.

// Use this code inside a project created with the Visual C++ > CLR > CLR Console Application template. 
// Replace the code in the default .cpp file with this code. 

#include "stdafx.h"
#using <system.dll>

using namespace System;

// To avoid confusion with other Timer classes, this sample always uses the fully-qualified
// name of System::Timers::Timer instead of a using statement for System::Timer.

        // is needed. If the timer is declared in a long-running method, KeepAlive must be used to prevent
        // the JIT compiler from allowing aggressive garbage collection to occur before the method ends.
        // You can experiment with this by commenting out the class-level declaration and uncommenting 
        // the declaration below; then uncomment the GC.KeepAlive(aTimer) at the end of the method.

Remarks

When you create an ElapsedEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the Timer.Elapsed 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

GetMethodInfo(Delegate)

Gets an object that represents the method represented by the specified delegate.
