Avoid valueChanged event on set_value?

[Bent]

Hi there

Is there any way to avoid the valueChanged event from firing when setting a textbox value using set_value(...)?

Thanks

Hi Kenneth Siewers,

Yes, you can use _SetValue(...) instead of set_value(...)

I guess I'm using some internal function then? Is there any danger in using function prefixed with "_" ? Normally I try to avoid using such methods as I don't know if I'm messing up some internal state etc.

Okay, I've tested the solution, but it seems like there's a problem.

When the textbox is blurred it fires the event even though the values hasn't changed. I guess I can see the problem, as the set_value probably initializes the state, which now isn't set.

I can see the eventargs contains old and new value and old_value is an empty string.

I guess I've figured it out. If I set the _initialValue = _SetValue the problem goes away. It's not pretty but it works.

It would be nice to have more control over the event triggering...
