TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs.Handled Property

Gets or sets whether an event was handled, if it was handled the default actions are not required.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Native

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraScheduler.v19.1.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public bool Handled { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property Handled As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if default conversion isn’t required; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ParseString and HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ConvertToString events fire before the standard conversion procedure of a TimeSpan value to a string or vice versa is started. If the event parameter’s Handled property is set to true within a handler, then the default conversion will not be performed. Otherwise, any custom conversion performed within an event handler will be overridden by the HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper‘s standard conversion routines.

Example

This example demonstrates how to use the HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper instance to implement the custom conversion of a TimeSpan value to a string and vice versa. To do this handle the HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ParseString and HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ConvertToString events and use the members of the corresponding TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs object.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Native;
// ...

// Handle the ParseString and ConvertToString events of the HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.
HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ParseString += new TimeSpanStringConvertEventHandler(OnParse);
HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ConvertToString += new TimeSpanStringConvertEventHandler(OnToString);

// Custom parsing of a string to a TimeSpan value.
void OnParse(object sender, TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs e) {
   double val;
   try {
         string number = e.StringValue.Substring(0, e.StringValue.IndexOf(" milliseconds"));
         val = Convert.ToDouble(number);
   }
   catch {
         val = 0;
   }

   e.TimeSpanValue = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(val);
   e.Handled = true;
}

// Custom conversion of a TimeSpan value to a string.
void OnToString(object sender, TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs e) {
   e.StringValue = e.TimeSpanValue.TotalMilliseconds.ToString() + " milliseconds";
   e.Handled = true;
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Native
' ...

' Handle the ParseString and ConvertToString events of the HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.
AddHandler HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ParseString, AddressOf OnParse
AddHandler HumanReadableTimeSpanHelper.ConvertToString, AddressOf OnToString

' Custom parsing of a string to a TimeSpan value.
Sub OnParse(sender As Object, e As TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs)
   Dim val As Double
   Try
      Dim number As String = e.StringValue.Substring(0, e.StringValue.IndexOf(" milliseconds"))
      val = Convert.ToDouble(number)
   Catch
      val = 0
   End Try

   e.TimeSpanValue = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(val)
   e.Handled = True
End Sub

' Custom conversion of a TimeSpan value to a string.
Sub OnToString(sender As Object, e As TimeSpanStringConvertEventArgs)
   e.StringValue = e.TimeSpanValue.TotalMilliseconds.ToString() + " milliseconds"
   e.Handled = True
End Sub
