EventArgs Class
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
EventArgs is the base class for classes containing event data.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The EventArgs type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
This class contains no event data; it is used by events that do not pass state information to an event handler when an event is raised. If the event handler requires state information, the application must derive a class from this class to hold the data.
For more information about events, see the EventHandler topic.
The following code sample illustrates the use of EventArgs.
In this sample, FireEventArgs is a set of event arguments derived from EventArgs, and passed to the FireEventHandler when an event is raised by calling ActivateFireAlarm.

I'm going to pour some water on it.", fe.room) + "\n"; else if (fe.ferocity < 5) _textblock.Text += String.Format("I'm using FireExtinguisher to put out the fire in the {0}.", fe.room) + "\n"; else _textblock.Text += String.Format("The fire in the {0} is out of control. I'm calling the fire department!", fe.room) + "\n"; } } public class Example { public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock) { // Create an instance of the class that will be firing an event.
