[RESOLVED] Order/Structure for events?

[detlion1643]

I am handling mouse and keyboard actions via OpenTK. Depending on other classes and the interfaces they implement, I am passing the correlating events through.

I just ran into a problem in which mouse events can trigger two different scenarios: MouseUp and Click. Should one fire before the other? Should the MouseUp event not even be fired if I'm firing the click event? What are your opinions?

protected override void OnMouseUp (MouseButtonEventArgs e)
		{
			base.OnMouseUp (e);
			if (FocusControl != null)
			{
				if (typeof(IMouseable).IsInstanceOfType (FocusControl))
				{
					((IMouseable)FocusControl).OnMouseUp (e);
				}
				if (!mouseMove) //the mouse was down then up without it moving in between
				{
					if (typeof(IClickable).IsInstanceOfType (FocusControl))
					{
						//click it
						((IClickable)FocusControl).Click();
						if(LastClickedFocusControl != null)
							LastClickedFocusControl.ClickedFocus = false;
						FocusControl.ClickedFocus = true;
						LastClickedFocusControl = FocusControl;
					}
				}
			}
			//reset all the mouse bools
			mouseDown = false;
			mouseMove = false;
		}

The same could be incorporated for KeyPress and KeyDown/Up events, although I seem to have a handle on that using KeyPress mostly, and KeyDown/Up only for special presses like BackSpace's.

All of the relevant events should fire. And they should fire off in the same and predictable order: MouseDown, MouseUp, MouseClick. I believe that's the same order in which Windows sends & processes those same events.

It sounds like I'm ok leaving it as is then. Thanks for the insight TG!
