Remarks

The ActiveViewChanged event is raised when the active View control within a MultiView control changes between posts to the server, and you can provide a custom handler for this event.

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see How to: Consume Events in a Web Forms Application.

The OnActiveViewChanged 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 OnActiveViewChanged(EventArgs) in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnActiveViewChanged(EventArgs) method so that registered delegates receive the event.
