Finding event information

The standard way to interpret the information returned by an event is to refer to the documentation for the VBX control.

Failing that, TVbxControl provides a number of methods for obtaining information about an event.

You can find the total number of events that a control can send by using the TVbxControl member function TVbxControl ::GetNumEvents, which returns an int that gives the total number of events. These events are indexed from 0 to the return value of GetNumEvents - 1.

You can find the name of any event in this range by calling the TVbxControl member function GetEventName, which takes one parameter, an int index number, and returns a string containing the name of the event. Conversely, you can find the index of an event by calling the TVbxControl member function TVbxControl::GetEventIndex, which takes one parameter, a string containing the event name, and returns the corresponding int event index.
