Capture MasterPage dynamic usercontrol event from page

You could put the user control inside an iFrame so that the masterpage does not get called.

See if the below psuedo-code which mainly uses delegate/event helps...


class UserControl1
{
    // usercontrol defines ButtonClickedEvent
    private delegate void ButtonClickedEvent();

    public ButtonClickedEvent ButtonClickedEventHandler;

   private button1_OnClick(...)
   {
      //•user clicks button on user control
        // when button is clicked on usercontrol
        // it calls the delegate
        if(ButtonClickedEventHandler != null)
               ButtonClickedEventHandler();
}

>•page calls masterpage method
in page code-behind:
{
    // when calling master page method
    // pass delegate for the handler method whic is in Page code-behind..
    // here OnButtonClicked is the method of the Page
    // which will get called when usercontrol button is clicked
    masterPage.CallMethod(new ButtonClickedEventHandler(OnButtonClicked));
}

public void OnButtonClicked()
    {
        // got the event; process it
     }

> •masterpage adds usercontrol
in master page code-behind:
public CallMethod(ButtonClickedEventHandler handler)
{
    // this method is called by Page
    // and delegate is a param
    // set the delegate object in usercontrol's delegate property
    > •masterpage adds usercontrol here  
    userControl1.ButtonClickedEventHandler += handler;
}

1. Are you able to translate into VB.NET. I tried an online converter but it didn't work and I think VB.Net doesn't require the delegates.

I think my problem isn't the actual coding but my project. For some reason I can't see the public method of my master page. If you could look at my other post (https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/26423038/How-to-raise-masterpage-event-from-dynamic-usercontrol.html), it contains the code I'm having problems with.

When I look at my web site's object viewer, it shows my master page class under App_Web_np1n6_lb but NOT under D\...\MyWebSite.

This link =>  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/c8y19k6h.aspx
shows how to access the members of a master page in the content page...see if this helps you call the master page method....

Below is vb equivalent pseudo-code for the above delegate code...note to call the method of master page from the content page...@MasterPage directive should have been set in the content page as shown in the link above....

In User control class file:
    
    // usercontrol defines ButtonClickedEvent
    Delegate Function ButtonClickedEvent() As String

    Public Dim ButtonClickedEventHandler As ButtonClickedEvent

   Protected Sub button1_Click(.......

        //•user clicks button on user control
        // when button is clicked on usercontrol
        // it calls the delegate
        LoginEventHandler ( ) ' CALL DELEGTE method

    End Sub


in content page class file:
>•page calls masterpage method

    // when calling master page method
    // pass delegate for the handler method whic is in Page code-behind..
    // here OnButtonClicked is the method of the Page
    // which will get called when usercontrol button is clicked
    masterPage.CallMethod(New ButtonClickedEvent(AddressOf  OnButtonClicked));

    Public Function OnButtonClicked()  As String
        ' this is the function that will get called when button is clicked in user control
    End Function 





> •masterpage adds usercontrol
in master page code-behind:
Public Function CallMethod( handler As ButtonClickedEvent)

    // this method is called by Page
    // and delegate is a param
    // set the delegate object in usercontrol's delegate property
    > •masterpage adds usercontrol here  

    userControl1.ButtonClickedEventHandler = handler;

End Funcion
