Public NotInheritable Class TreeNodeEventArgs
	Inherits EventArgs

NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubmethodTreeNodeEventArgs(TreeNode)

Initializes a new instance of the TreeNodeEventArgs class using the specified TreeNode object.

NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubpropertyNode

Gets the node that raised the event.

NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubmethodEquals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.(Inherited from Object.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.)

The TreeNodeEventArgs class is used to store the event data that is passed to an event-handling method.

For a list of the initial property values for an instance of the TreeNodeEventArgs class, see TreeNodeEventArgs(TreeNode).

For more information about handling events, see NIB: Consuming Events.

The following code example demonstrates how to populate a node dynamically using the TreeNodeEventArgs object that is passed to the event-handling method.
