ASP.Net ScriptControl - add Javascript get_events method: possible?
So, I ran into a problem, apparently, the get_events method is only "included" in the ExtenderControl class.
What do I need to do:
Be able to call the get_events Javascript method using a ScriptControl, as using ExtenderControl is actually not possible at the moment.
I hope there is an easy way to make the scriptControl javascript object inherit something (if possible).

It turns out the get_events method is really easy to create. You just need a field to store the dictionary, a couple of lines of code, and something to trigger an event if needed:
getEvents: function()
{
if (this._events == null)
{
this._events = new Sys.EventHandlerList();
}
return this._events;
},
And now for access:
onItemSelected: function(args)
{
this.raiseEvent('userItemSelected', args);
},
raiseEvent: function(eventName, eventArgs)
{
var handler = this.getEvents().getHandler(eventName);
if(handler)
{
handler(this._autoComplete, eventArgs);
}
},
Basically events are just a dictionary that contains the name of the event and a reference to the method to call. When you have a method (handler), it's just a matter of calling it.
