How to add own event handler in C#

Jun 20, 2008 05:54 AM|LINK

I found this article very useful while adding control in dynamically.

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/user-controls/DynamicUC.aspx

But when converting VB to C# I am facing problem in the event Handler.

//Add an event handler to this control to raise an event when the delete button is clicked

//on the user control

//DynamicUserControl.RemoveUserControl += this.HandleRemoveUserControl;

DynamicUserControl.RemoveUserControl += new EventHandler(RemoveUserControl);

void RemoveUserControl(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

//This handles delete event fired from the user control

//Get the user control that fired this event, and remove it

Admin_AddPhoto DynamicUserControl = sender.parent;

ph1.Controls.Remove(sender.parent);

//Keep a pipe delimited list of which user controls were removed. This will increase the

//viewstate size if the user keeps removing dynamic controls, but under normal use

//this is such a small increase in size that it shouldn't be an issue.

ltlRemoved.Text += DynamicUserControl.ID + "|";// ERROR: Unknown assignment operator ConcatString ;

//Also, now that we've removed a user control decrement the count of total user controls on the page

ltlCount.Text = Convert.ToString((Convert.ToInt16(ltlCount.Text) - 1));

throw new Exception("The method or operation is not implemented.");

}

But when I call the “sender.Parent” here I am getting error

Error 1 'object' does not contain a definition for 'parent'

How to remove the error. ? ???????

Hi place ((Control)sender).Parent in place of sender.parent and try.

sender is an object variable and obviously, object do not possess a Parent property. try casting sender to the appropriate type. and calling the parent property on that type

e.g

Control ctrl = (Control)sender;

Admin_AddPhoto DynamicUserControl = bttn.Parent;

thats it.

Worry never robs tommorrow of its sorry but only saps today of its strength.

You need to cast sender to the appropriate class type. For example:

void EventHandlerMethod(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Button button = sender as Button;
    Admin_AddPhoto dynamicUserControl = button.Parent;


    // put remaining functionality here
}

I hope this helps.

Hi Hamza,

If you still need to convert code from VB to C# (or vice versa), I highly recommend trying Telerik's Code Converter, which allows you to easily convert code between the two languages. Check it out at this link.

I hope that helps.

AddTier.ascx

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="AddTier.ascx.cs" Inherits="AddTier" %>
<tr>
    <td>
        <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblTier"></asp:Label>
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="drp">
            <asp:ListItem Selected="True">$</asp:ListItem>
            <asp:ListItem Value="%"></asp:ListItem>
        </asp:DropDownList>
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txt"></asp:TextBox>
        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ID="reqtxt" ControlToValidate="txt" ErrorMessage="*"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
    </td>
</tr>

page for dynamically add this control :

TestConrol.aspx

            <asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnSaleTier" Text="Add Tier" OnClick="btnSaleTier_Click" />
            <asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnSaleRemove" Text="Remove Last Tier" OnClick="btnSaleRemove_Click" />
            <table>
                <asp:Panel runat="server" ID="pnlAddSaleTier">
                </asp:Panel>
            </table>

TestControl.aspx.cs

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

int num = 0;
        if (ViewState["Counter"] != null)
        {
            num = (int)ViewState["Counter"];
        }
        else
        {
            ViewState["Counter"] = 0;
        }
        for (int j = 0; j < num; j++)
        {
            Control cl = LoadControl("~/AddTier.ascx");

            cl.ID = "c" + j;
            if (pnlAddSaleTier.FindControl(cl.ID) != null)
            {

            }
            else
            {
                pnlAddSaleTier.Controls.Add(cl);
            }
        }
        if (ViewState["Remove"] == "1")
        {
            pnlAddSaleTier.Controls.RemoveAt(Convert.ToInt32(ViewState["Counter"]));
        }

}

    protected void btnSaleTier_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        ViewState["Counter"] = (int)ViewState["Counter"] + 1;
        Page_Load(Page, new EventArgs());
    }

protected void btnSaleRemove_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        ViewState["Remove"] = "1";
        Page_Load(Page, new EventArgs());
        ViewState["Remove"] = "0";
        ViewState["Counter"] = (int)ViewState["Counter"] - 1;
    }

Hope this will help you.
