DataListCommandEventHandler Delegate
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Represents the method that will handle the CancelCommand, DeleteCommand, EditCommand, ItemCommand, and UpdateCommand events of a DataList control.
public delegate void DataListCommandEventHandler(System::Object ^ source, DataListCommandEventArgs ^ e);
public delegate void DataListCommandEventHandler(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e);
type DataListCommandEventHandler = delegate of obj * DataListCommandEventArgs -> unit
Public Delegate Sub DataListCommandEventHandler(source As Object, e As DataListCommandEventArgs)
Parameters
- source
- Object
The source of the event.
A DataListCommandEventArgs that contains the event data.
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to define event handlers for the EditCommand, UpdateCommand, CancelCommand and DeleteCommand events of a DataList control. This example specifies the event handlers declaratively, setting the event handler for each command property on the DataList control.

Remarks
The CancelCommand event is raised when the Cancel
button for an item in the DataList control is clicked.
The DeleteCommand event is raised when the Delete
button for an item in the DataList control is clicked.
The EditCommand event is raised when the Edit
button for an item in the DataList control is clicked.
The ItemCommand event is raised when any button for an item in the DataList control is clicked. This allows you to programmatically test for when a specific command button is clicked and take appropriate action. This event is commonly used to handle custom command buttons for the DataList control.
The UpdateCommand event is raised when the Update
button for an item in the DataList control is clicked.
When you create a DataListCommandEventHandler 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.
