C# event with custom arguments

Question

I want to have an event that takes an enum only as the argument. For example

public enum MyEvents{
   Event1
}

// how do I declare this to take enum MyEvent         


        

Answer 1

EventHandler receives EventArgs as a parameter. To resolve your problem, you can build your own MyEventArgs.

 public enum MyEvents
 { 
    Event1 
 }

 public class MyEventArgs : EventArgs
 {
    public MyEvents MyEvent { get; set; }
 }

 public static event EventHandler<MyEventArgs> EventTriggered; 

 public static void Trigger(MyEvents ev) 
 { 
     if (EventTriggered != null) 
     {
         EventTriggered(null, new MyEventArgs { MyEvent = ev });
     } 
 }
