An EventArgs that contains the event data.
Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Raising an Event.
The OnBackColorChanged 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 InheritorsWhen overriding OnBackColorChanged in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnBackColorChanged method so that registered delegates receive the event.
The following code example is an event-raising method that is executed when the Text property value changes. The Control class has several methods with the name pattern OnPropertyNameChanged that raise the corresponding PropertyNameChanged event when the PropertyName value changes (PropertyName represents the name of the corresponding property).
The following code example changes the ForeColor of a TextBox derived class displaying currency data. The example converts the text to a decimal number and changes the ForeColor to Color
