trigger event not firing

Any time a KeyPress or KeyDown event occurs, they call KeyTyping. So your app might be filtering out keys so they never reach the control. Either that or your event handler ties were broken in your code. Look at one of those two things.

hi, thanks, but the problem should be that in my code there is not event handlers, i have put the control (working) and the code for the event, but the only thing i do is initialize the control

code:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Get the project path
projectPath = Path.GetFullPath(Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath) + @"\..\..\");
languagePath = projectPath + @"Languages\";
// Load from XML
editor.Document.LoadLanguageFromXml(languagePath + "ActiproSoftware.CSharp.xml", 0);


// Load the reflection ImageList
reflectionImageList = SyntaxEditor.ReflectionImageList;


}



/// <summary>
/// Occurs before a key is typed.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="sender">Sender of the event.</param>
/// <param name="e">Event arguments.</param>
private void editor_KeyTyping(object sender, ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.KeyTypingEventArgs e)
{
// Add status message
// this.WriteLine("KeyTyping: " + e.ToString());

if (e.KeyChar == '(')
{

What I was asking is if you are positive you have a line like this in your InitializeComponent code for the form: If that isn't there then the event will never be called.

i supposed it was the problem, that its not in my code. the problem is :
1. i cant see this in the examples
2. dont know the class of KeyTypingEventHandler. (i suppose i miss a dll or using..)

well i have found it in the example and with this syntax its working...


this.editor.KeyTyping += new ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.KeyTypingEventHandler(this.editor_KeyTyping);
this.editor.Trigger += new ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.TriggerEventHandler(this.editor_Trigger);


many thanks.

Yes that's how you wire up events in C#. In VB you don't need to do that.
