EditToolEvents | Helper coclass for working with the outbound interface on noncreatable object classes in VB. |
These events are only broadcast if the user is moving the tool around the map with the left mouse button depressed.
The following code block illustrates now to configure a client to access the edit tool's events, and reports the number of times each event is fired when moving the edit tool.
The code assumes you have a reference to the application. You will also need to reference ESRI.ArcGIS.SystemUI (for ICommand) in addition to the libraries implied within the code.
public void SetupEditToolEvents()
{
//get the edit tool
ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditTool editTool = m_application.Document.CommandBars.Find(
"Editor_EditTool", true, true).Command as ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditTool;
//hook up the events
((ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_Event)editTool.EventSource).OnBeginMove += new
ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_OnBeginMoveEventHandler(EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnBeginMove);
((ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_Event)editTool.EventSource).OnMove += new
ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_OnMoveEventHandler(EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnMove);
((ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_Event)editTool.EventSource).OnFinishMove += new
ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor.IEditToolEvents_OnFinishMoveEventHandler(EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnFinishMove);
}
void EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnMove(ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint loc)
{
i += 1;
}
void EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnFinishMove(ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint loc)
{
j += 1;
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(string.Format("OnBeginMove fired: {0}, OnMove fired: {1}, OnFinishMove fired: {2}",k,i,j));
}
void EditToolEvents_StartCmd_OnBeginMove(ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint loc)
{
//reset counter
i = 0;
j = 0;
k = 0;
//start counting
k += 1;
}
int i, j, k = 0;
