TextChangedEventHandler Delegate
Represents the method that will handle the TextBoxBase.TextChanged routed event.
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
'Declaration Public Delegate Sub TextChangedEventHandler ( _ sender As Object, _ e As TextChangedEventArgs _ ) 'Usage Dim instance As New TextChangedEventHandler(AddressOf HandlerMethod)
In XAML, you can use delegates but you cannot define your own.
Parameters
- sender
- Type: System.Object
The object where the event handler is attached.
- e
- Type: System.Windows.Controls.TextChangedEventArgs
The event data.
This example shows one way to use the TextChanged event to execute a method whenever the text in a TextBox control has changed.
In the code-behind class for the XAML that contains the TextBox control that you want to monitor for changes, insert a method to call whenever the TextChanged event fires. This method must have a signature that matches what is expected by the TextChangedEventHandler delegate.
The event handler is called whenever the contents of the TextBox control are changed, either by a user or programmatically.
Note: This event fires when the TextBox control is created and initially populated with text.
In the Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) that defines your TextBox control, specify the TextChanged attribute with a value that matches the event handler method name.
<TextBox TextChanged="textChangedEventHandler"> Here is the initial text in my TextBox. Each time the contents of this TextBox are changed, the TextChanged event fires and textChangedEventHandler is called. </TextBox>
