SendMessage?

[xucaen]

Hi all, what is the C# equivilent of SendMessage?

right now I am doing it wrong like this:

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            button1_Click( sender,  e);
        }

But I would like to do something like this:

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            SendMessage(button1.Click,sender,  e);
        }

My reason for wanting to do a SendMessage is because I have multiple methods assigned to the Click event:

            this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.ResetButtonColors);
            this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.XferPanelControls);
            this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button1SpecificProcesses);

It would be sloppy to call all of these event handlers directly from Form1_Load and everywhere else I need to fire off an event. It could get real ugly real fast.

Thanks!

Have you considered doing it something like this?

this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(Button1Click);
//...
void Button1Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ThreeFunctions ();
}

void ThreeFunctions ()
{
ResetButtonColors ();
XferPanelControls ();
button1SpecificProcesses ();
}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
ThreeFunctions ();
}

It seems to better express your intent.

I hope that helps!

But if you're really, really determined to do it your way, consider this:
