events (External Interfaces Reference)

Return list of events control can trigger

Syntax

```
S = h.events
S = events(h)
```

Description

S = h.events returns structure array S containing all events, both registered and unregistered, known to the control, and the function prototype used when calling the event handler routine. For each array element, the structure field is the event name and the contents of that field is the function prototype for that event's handler.

S = events(h) is an alternate syntax for the same operation.

Note The send function is identical to events, but support for send will be removed in a future release of MATLAB.

Examples

Create an mwsamp control and list all events:

f = figure ('position', [100 200 200 200]);
h = actxcontrol ('mwsamp.mwsampctrl.2', [0 0 200 200], f);

h.events
   Click = void Click()
   DblClick = void DblClick()
   MouseDown = void MouseDown(int16 Button, int16 Shift, 
      Variant x, Variant y)

Assign the output to a variable and get one field of the returned structure:

ev = h.events;

ev.MouseDown
ans =
void MouseDown(int16 Button, int16 Shift, Variant x, Variant y)

eventlisteners get (COM)
