On GUI Event Mode, how to identify different event(s) for a control

[rajeshwaran]

I have enabled GUI On Event Mode "Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)",

I have also declared a event handler for a Control.

When the handler is called, how to identify the event or events for that particular control ?

For example, I have a listbox, for that I have registered a handler, inside the handler I have to identify the EVENTS (like SELCHANGE, DBL_CLICKED, etc.,)

how to identify ?

Hi AdmiralAlkex,

My question is not about GUIRegisterMsg(), it is about GUICtrlSetOnEvent()

I'm with the Admiral on this. This can be done more easily with Guiregistermsg()

#include <GuiComboBoxEx.au3>
#include <GuiImageList.au3>

Hi AdmiralAlkex,

My question is not about GUIRegisterMsg(), it is about GUICtrlSetOnEvent()

No, you asked how to identify different events, and I answered that. See the example for whatever control you're using in the "User Defined Function Reference" section in the helpfile.
