---|---|
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. |

Remarks
Node validation is performed within the ValidateNode event handler. This event is automatically fired when a node is about to lose focus. To manually force node validation, call the DataViewBase.CommitEditing method.
The processed node is returned by the event parameter’s TreeListNodeValidationEventArgs.Node property. After cell values have been obtained, you can verify whether these values meet your validity criteria. If the node fails validation, set the event’s ValidationEventArgs.IsValid parameter to false. Otherwise, leave this parameter set to true.
