PasswordBoxEdit.CustomPasswordStrength Event

Enables you to estimate password strength manually.

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v24.2.dll

Declaration

public event CustomPasswordStrengthEventHandler CustomPasswordStrength

Public Event CustomPasswordStrength As CustomPasswordStrengthEventHandler

The CustomPasswordStrength event's data class is PasswordStrengthEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:

Property	Description
Handled	Gets or sets a value that indicates the present state of the event handling for a routed event as it travels the route. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.
OriginalSource	Gets the original reporting source as determined by pure hit testing, before any possible Source adjustment by a parent class. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.
Password	Gets the password currently entered by an end-user.
PasswordStrength	Gets or sets the password strength.
RoutedEvent	Gets or sets the RoutedEvent associated with this RoutedEventArgs instance. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.
Source	Gets or sets a reference to the object that raised the event. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.

The event data class exposes the following methods:

Method	Description
InvokeEventHandler(Delegate, Object)	When overridden in a derived class, provides a way to invoke event handlers in a type-specific way, which can increase efficiency over the base implementation. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.
OnSetSource(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, provides a notification callback entry point whenever the value of the Source property of an instance changes. Inherited from RoutedEventArgs.

By default, the password strength is automatically estimated and returned by the PasswordBoxEdit.PasswordStrength property. To manually estimate password strength, handle the CustomPasswordStrength event. The event parameter allows you to obtain the text currently entered by an end-user (PasswordStrengthEventArgs.Password) and specify the password strength (PasswordStrengthEventArgs.PasswordStrength).
