Binding.OnFormat(ConvertEventArgs) Method

Definition

Raises the Format event.

protected:
 virtual void OnFormat(System::Windows::Forms::ConvertEventArgs ^ cevent);
protected virtual void OnFormat (System.Windows.Forms.ConvertEventArgs cevent);
abstract member OnFormat : System.Windows.Forms.ConvertEventArgs -> unit
override this.OnFormat : System.Windows.Forms.ConvertEventArgs -> unit
Protected Overridable Sub OnFormat (cevent As ConvertEventArgs)

Parameters

cevent
ConvertEventArgs

A ConvertEventArgs that contains the event data.

Remarks

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Handling and Raising Events.

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