Inserting Events Stubs in CS

The .NET framework makes it easy to event stubs by using operator +=.

Consider the simple example below:

1. class SubscribeToEvents

2. {

3.     private rxButton _myButton;

5.     public SubscribeToEvents()

6.     {

7.         // Create a new button

8.         _myButton = new rxButton();

9.         // Subscribe to its 'onAction' event

10.         _myButton.OnActionEvent += _myButton_OnActionEvent;

11.     }

13.     // The event stub

14.     void _myButton_OnActionEvent(IRibbonControl control)

15.     {

16.         throw new NotImplementedException();

17.     }

18. }

To insert the delegate stub (on line X) automatically you can do the following on line 8:

1. type _myButton.OnActionEvent +=
2. intellisense picks up and prompts you to press tab to insert the stub:

   

3. Press tab twice. The delegate stub on line 14 will get inserted by visual studio.
