Events Made Easy: Lesson 1

The ability to fire an event is core to most Windows development projects. Events are useful for updating a user interface with changed data, or causing a piece of code to run after another piece of code has completed. .NET has brought us a powerful model for programming events. In this lesson we will write a small application that will show an example of an event.

Events: A Little Advanced

In the previous lesson we created an event and consumed it. In doing so you probably noticed that our code would have been a little better if we could have determined whether or not the file actually existed. We could then provide more information to the user and make our code a bit more useful.

Dynamically setting properties of a class from a Database

In this short example I will demonstrate a powerful feature of Reflection that will allow you to dynamically set the values of a class. By setting the properties of a class dynamically, you can create a simple method that allows your class to be constructed and pre-populated from a database.
