Custom button ovverrides OnClick

06-30-2009 7:34 AM |

Hi guys,

  I generate buttons in code behind, don't know what to preform at develope time so i have to choose at runtime. So my idea was to create a new button control inherits the UIElement.Button and override OnClick event with my own EventHandlerArguments, so i can pass data to the event handler and choose there at runtime what to do, dependent at the data in my own EventHandlerArguments.

Have somebody i idea how to implement or know a best practise to do what i want. Use onClick event with my own EventArgs?!

Thanks for your help.

 Create a custom control that inherits from Button and overrides its Click event.

Thx for your response, think i have found a possibilty to do what i want. I i think i don't need t override OnClick. I inherited from Button and add a property, which i set in Constructor. And in the RoutetdEventHandler i get this property and make my choice what to do.

 Perhaps, but i don't rely know, the Action<T> class could help in this scenarios?
