Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of this member. In the example, an event handler reports on the occurrence of the DragEnter event. This report helps you to learn when the event occurs and can assist you in debugging. To report on multiple events or on events that occur frequently, consider replacing MessageBox..::.Show with Console..::.WriteLine or appending the message to a multiline TextBox.

To run the example code, paste it into a project that contains an instance of type RichTextBox named RichTextBox1. Then ensure that the event handler is associated with the DragEnter event.


Private Sub RichTextBox1_DragEnter(sender as Object, e as DragEventArgs) _ 
     Handles RichTextBox1.DragEnter

    Dim messageBoxVB as New System.Text.StringBuilder()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Data", e.Data)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "KeyState", e.KeyState)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "X", e.X)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Y", e.Y)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "AllowedEffect", e.AllowedEffect)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Effect", e.Effect)
    messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
    MessageBox.Show(messageBoxVB.ToString(),"DragEnter Event")

End Sub


private void RichTextBox1_DragEnter(Object sender, DragEventArgs e) {

System.Text.StringBuilder messageBoxCS = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Data", e.Data );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "KeyState", e.KeyState );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "X", e.X );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Y", e.Y );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "AllowedEffect", e.AllowedEffect );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Effect", e.Effect );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
MessageBox.Show(messageBoxCS.ToString(), "DragEnter Event" );
}
