✅ Window Forms.NET question..

are all of the objects that are accessible from toolbox (window forms .NET) created by using delegates and events that hold methods that we write in our code??

the designer generates the code that makes the ui for you

Cyberrex1/2/2023

controls (the objects that are accessible from toolbox) are basically a class that gets instantiated and added to the window

Cyberrex1/2/2023

you can see the generated code

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

this code looks like code of delegates, dont you think so?

Cyberrex1/2/2023

not this

Cyberrex1/2/2023

the other generated code thats hidden by default

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

but are those buttons delegatesa/

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

Cyberrex1/2/2023

this is an event handler

Cyberrex1/2/2023

a delegate is a reference to a method

Cyberrex1/2/2023

this is the method that is being referenced

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

oh, right my bad :)

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

the reason why i am asking this question is

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

do i need to learn how delegates and events work in order to code WinForms .NET application?

Cyberrex1/2/2023

it would help you understand the framework a lot better yes

Cyberrex1/2/2023

and its useful to know in general

Cyberrex1/2/2023

delegates are heavily used in LINQ for example

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

btw, where do you recommend to learning to build WindForm application?

Cyberrex1/2/2023

i dont recommend winforms

Cyberrex1/2/2023

learn wpf/uwp/winui 3/avalonia

Cyberrex1/2/2023

wpf is probably the easiest to get started with since its the oldest, with the most resources online

Cyberrex1/2/2023

once you know one xaml framework it isnt hard to switch to another one

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

do they have same logic?

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

in terms of programming language's logic

Cyberrex1/2/2023

not sure what youre asking

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

if i know how to code in winforms, will i be able to code in avalonia ?

Cyberrex1/2/2023

theyre all c#

Cyberrex1/2/2023

youll need to learn xaml

Cyberrex1/2/2023

but once you do, youll have a much much better experience than winforms

Cyberrex1/2/2023

you write the ui in xaml instead of using a designer

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

i dont have time :(

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

it is for school project, we have to create application in c# winforms

Cyberrex1/2/2023

well use winforms then

Cyberrex1/2/2023

the way i learned is by googling whenever i encountered an issue

Cumonsnow1/2/2023

!solved
