I have made a WinForms application with a custom richtextbox control.
I am referring it as a Windows control (a dll file) in my project. In my program for the richtextbox I have written functionality inside it's textchanged event.
I want to do additional work only after the textchanged event is fired or in other ways once the text is added to the textbox. Something like I want to call a function foo() in the text_changedevent. It only calls foo and fails to process the underlying textchanged event.
Any way in C# I can make it process the internal textchanged event first, and then look into my text changed event?
think of the scenario I have written the code for mytextbox_textchanged
private void txt_code_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { //some code which will always be called whenever textchanged event occurs. } Now I inherit this control in my project say MyApp1. Here I have a label where I want to display the number of lines contained inside my textbox. So I would write
private void my_inherited_txt_code_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { //code to update the label with my_inherited_txt_code.lines.length } so my problem was, I first wanted the txt_code_TextChanged event to be called and then do the code written inside my_inherited_txt_code_TextChanged. Which was solved by writing
private void my_inherited_txt_code_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { base.OnTextChanged(e); MessageBox.Show("foo"); }
