Binding Parse event

The binding object has a Parse event that is raised when a new value is added to the component to go to the object. It's a middle-tier between the component and the class object.

One useful thing is it can parse an ID and save it's Name.

To test, create textbox and add a binding object to this textbox. Add a parse event to the binding object and in the event add the code below.


void b_Parse(object sender, ConvertEventArgs e)
{
int i = -1;
int.TryParse(e.Value.ToString(), out i);
int id;
string name="";
if(i>=0)
{
foreach(object o in bs.List)
{
id = (o as Product).Id;
if(i==id)
{
name = (o as Product).Name;
e.Value = name;
break;
}
}
}
}

The important part is the LOOP that through all bindingsource and if find the ID in the list will change the display data to an other data.
