Generating events

If an event takes arguments, you must assign values to the arguments to be able to successfully generate events with arguments.

Procedure

  1. In the Events window, click Select. The Instances Selection window opens (see Defining breakpoints).
  2. Select an instance from the list, then click OK.
  3. Click the down-arrow to right of the Event field to display a list of events that the object can receive and select an event from the list.

    If the event takes arguments, they are displayed in the arguments list.
  4. You must assign actual values to arguments to successfully generate events with arguments. To assign a value to an argument, select the argument from the Arguments list, then click Edit. The Argument Value window opens.
  5. Enter a value for the argument, then click OK. The value is displayed next to the argument in the Events window.
  6. Click OK.

    The Events window stays open after sending the event.
