KeyEventArgs Class

Contains the arguments returned by a virtual key event.

Syntax

public ref class KeyEventArgs sealed : ICoreWindowEventArgs

Remarks

This object is returned by a delegate registered for one of the following events:

Example

C++

// returning keypress events data through KeyEventArgs

void MyCoreWindowEvents::SetWindow( // implementation called by CoreApplication::Run(), provided for context
    _In_ CoreWindow^ window
    )
{
    // ...
    window->KeyDown +=
        ref new TypedEventHandler<CoreWindow^, KeyEventArgs^>(this, &CoreWindowEvents::OnKeyDown);
    window->KeyUp +=
        ref new TypedEventHandler<CoreWindow^, KeyEventArgs^>(this, &CoreWindowEvents::OnKeyUp);

    // ...
   
}

Note

This class is not agile, which means that you need to consider its threading model and marshaling behavior. For more info, see Threading and Marshaling (C++/CX).
