Raises the DrawItem event.

[Visual Basic]
Overridable Protected Sub OnDrawItem( _
   ByVal e As DrawItemEventArgs _
)
 
[C#]
protected virtual void OnDrawItem( 
   DrawItemEventArgs e 
);
[C++]
protected: virtual void OnDrawItem( 
   DrawItemEventArgs* e 
);

Remarks

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Raising an Event.

The OnDrawItem method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors:  When overriding OnDrawItem in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnDrawItem method so that registered delegates receive the event.
