SelectionChangedEventArgs.InvokeEventHandler(Delegate, Object) Method

Definition

Performs the proper type casting to call the type-safe SelectionChangedEventHandler delegate for the SelectionChanged event.

protected:
 override void InvokeEventHandler(Delegate ^ genericHandler, System::Object ^ genericTarget);
protected override void InvokeEventHandler (Delegate genericHandler, object genericTarget);
override this.InvokeEventHandler : Delegate * obj -> unit
Protected Overrides Sub InvokeEventHandler (genericHandler As Delegate, genericTarget As Object)

Parameters

genericHandler
Delegate

The handler to invoke.

genericTarget
Object

The current object along the event's route.

Examples

The following example creates a ListBox and subscribes to the SelectionChanged event. It uses the SelectionChangedEventArgs to find the selected item in the ListBox.

<WrapPanel Width="500" Orientation="Horizontal" Name="rectanglesPanel">
  <WrapPanel.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="Rectangle">
      <Setter Property="Height" Value="20"/>
      <Setter Property="Width" Value="20"/>
      <Setter Property="Margin" Value="5"/>
    </Style>
  </WrapPanel.Resources>
</WrapPanel>

<ListBox Name="myListBox" HorizontalAlignment="Left" SelectionMode="Extended" 
      Width="265" Height="55" Background="HoneyDew" SelectionChanged="myListBox_SelectionChanged"
      ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource Colors}}" IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="true">
</ListBox>
void myListBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs args)
{

    BrushConverter converter = new BrushConverter();

    // Show Rectangles that are the selected colors.
    foreach (string color in args.AddedItems)
    {
        if (GetRectangle(color) == null)
        {
            Rectangle aRect = new Rectangle();
            aRect.Fill = (Brush) converter.ConvertFrom(color);
            aRect.Tag = color;
            rectanglesPanel.Children.Add(aRect);
        }
    }

    // Remove the Rectangles that are the unselected colors.
    foreach (string color in args.RemovedItems)
    {
        FrameworkElement removedItem = GetRectangle(color);
        if (removedItem != null)
        {
            rectanglesPanel.Children.Remove(removedItem);
        }
    }
}

FrameworkElement GetRectangle(string color)
{
    foreach (FrameworkElement rect in rectanglesPanel.Children)
    {
        if (rect.Tag.ToString() == color)
            return rect;
    }

    return null;
}
Private Sub myListBox_SelectionChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args As SelectionChangedEventArgs)

    Dim converter As BrushConverter = New BrushConverter()
    Dim color As String

    ' Show Rectangles that are the selected colors.
    For Each color In args.AddedItems

        If GetRectangle(color) Is Nothing Then
            Dim aRect As Rectangle = New Rectangle()
            aRect.Fill = CType(converter.ConvertFrom(color), Brush)
            aRect.Tag = color
            rectanglesPanel.Children.Add(aRect)
        End If

    Next

    ' Remove the Rectangles that are the unselected colors.
    For Each color In args.RemovedItems

        Dim removedItem As FrameworkElement = GetRectangle(color)
        If Not removedItem Is Nothing Then
            rectanglesPanel.Children.Remove(removedItem)
        End If

    Next

End Sub

Private Function GetRectangle(ByVal color As String) As FrameworkElement
    Dim rect As FrameworkElement
    For Each rect In rectanglesPanel.Children
        If rect.Tag.ToString() = color Then
            Return rect
        End If
    Next

    Return Nothing
End Function
