eventArgs of a named/non Anonymous JS Function

[Gotcha]

Hi,

stupid question ... How can I get the list of arguments available in a named/non anonymous function?
For example, I'm calling onClientXXXX = "MyJS" on a Telerik Control and I'd like to know what is available in the eventArgs ?

Also, when i go in specific RadControls Documentation, sometimes I can get from the examples ... the methods on the eventArgs... eg : args..set_cancel(), args.get_checked()....etc but where do I get an exhaustive list of available methods/properties of those respective Args... I can't seem to find them.
Thanks

Hello Gotcha,

All Radcontrols have the two default parameters when firing a client side event, sender and args. You can use the developer tools like FireBug or Internet Explorer Developer Tools to get working with this.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,
Princy.

Sorry probably wasnt clear enough...
I know about the sender and args objects beind sent... but how can I find out what's sent to me ( therefore is available) from each type of control when they are called client side...

This is why I'm also wondering what kind of methods and properties are available for each type of telerik control...(2nd part of the question)

Thanks

Hi Cyril,

Unfortunately, at present there is no complete list of all methods and properties for the client-side event arguments. Most of these methods are listed in the Client-Side API section of our documentation per control for each event. Not all of the client-side events have detailed detailed information regarding their event arguments, but we are always working on the improvement of our documentation.

In addition, we do have planned to provide intellisence for the arguments of the client-side event handlers as will, but I am not able to provide firm estimate when this will be introduced.

For the time being, if a list of the methods / properties is missing in the documentation, you can use FireBug / DevToolbar to examine the EventArgs object as Princy suggested.

Please excuse us for the temporal inconvenience.

Thanks for the confirmation...
Regarding "For the time being, if a list of the methods / properties is missing in the documentation, you can use FireBug / DevToolbar to examine the EventArgs object as Princy suggested."

Can you give me some pointers on how to achieve this ?  I just started using the Chrome Developer tools but not sure how to fully utilize it to debug JS...

I'll try to google it in the meantime.. I use Chrome mostly and sometimes IE .

Thanks

Hi Cyril,

I, personally, prefer to use the Developer's Tools console API to log and examine objects. I have prepared a video demonstrating how to examine the arguments of the RadFileExplorer's ClientDelete event:
