Raises the KeyDown event.

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

Remarks

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

The OnKeyDown 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 OnKeyDown in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnKeyDown method so that registered delegates receive the event.
