Control..::.OnGotFocus Method

Raises the GotFocus event.

Namespace: System.Windows.Forms
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Protected Overridable Sub OnGotFocus ( _
    e As EventArgs _
)

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim e As EventArgs

Me.OnGotFocus(e)

protected virtual void OnGotFocus(
    EventArgs e
)

virtual void OnGotFocus(
    EventArgs^ e
)

JScript

protected function OnGotFocus(
    e : EventArgs
)

Parameters

e: Type: System..::.EventArgs
An EventArgs that contains the event data.

Remarks

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Raising an Event.

The OnGotFocus method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors:

When overriding OnGotFocus in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnGotFocus method so that registered delegates receive the event.
