EventTriggerBase Generic Class

Represents a trigger that can listen to an element other than its AssociatedObject.

Namespace: System.Windows.Interactivity
Assembly: System.Windows.Interactivity (in system.windows.interactivity.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustInherit Class EventTriggerBase(Of T)
    Inherits EventTriggerBase
'Usage
Dim instance As EventTriggerBase(Of T)
public abstract class EventTriggerBase<T> : EventTriggerBase
generic<typename T>
public ref class EventTriggerBase abstract : public EventTriggerBase

Remarks

EventTriggerBase extends TriggerBase to add knowledge of another object than the one it is attached to. This allows a user to attach a Trigger/Action pair to one element and invoke the Action in response to a change in another object somewhere else. Override OnSourceChanged to hook or unhook handlers on the source element, and OnAttached/OnDetaching for the associated element. The type of the Source element can be constrained by the generic type parameter. If you need control over the type of the AssociatedObject, set a TypeConstraintAttribute on your derived type.
