copied!<p>ActiveX events are handled via COM, so you need to delve in there a bit <em>unfortunately</em>.</p> <p>The thing to remember with COM is that everything is handled via interfaces, so you normally need to create two interfaces, one for any properties and one for your events.</p> <p>The key for events is marking your class with the ComSourceInterfaces attribute, which is described by MSDN as "Identifies a list of interfaces that are exposed as COM event sources for the attributed class."</p> <p>This simple class structure should work for you (it has for me in the past).</p> <pre><code>namespace MyActiveX { [Guid("Your-GUID") ,InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIDispatch)] public interface IActiveXEvents { [DispId(1)] void OnMouseClick(int index); } [Guid("Another-GUID"),InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIDispatch)] public interface IActiveX { //[DispId(1)] // Any properties you want here like this // string aProperty { get; set; } } [ComVisible(true)] [Guid("Yet-Another-GUID"), ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)] [ProgId("MyActiveX")] [ComSourceInterfaces(typeof(IActiveXEvents))] public partial class MyActiveX : UserControl, IActiveX { public delegate void OnMouseClickHandler(int index); public event OnMouseClickHandler OnMouseClick; // Dummy Method to use when firing the event private void MyActiveX_nMouseClick(int index) { } public MyActiveX() { InitializeComponent(); // Bind event this.OnMouseClick = new OnMouseClickHandler(this.MyActiveX_MouseClick) } public void FireTheEvent() { int index = -1; this.OnMouseClick(index); } } } </code></pre> <p>If you don't need any properties you can just exclude the IActiveX interface. Also if you are going to use the Click event, you will need to mark it as <strong>new</strong> to pass it to COM.</p>
