The OnDelete event notifies a client when an entity is deleted.
| Name | Type | Description |
| Entity | Object | The Entity that is being deleted. When the value of the BeforeOrAfter argument is kBefore, the object provided is the object before it is deleted. When the value is kAfter, an object is also provided but since the actual entity has been deleted calling any methods or properties on the object will fail. The only thing that is valid to do with the object at this time is to compare it's identity with a reference previously saved. For example: Private m_oDeletedEntity As Object Private Sub oDocEvents_OnDelete(ByVal Entity As Object, ByVal BeforeOrAfter As EventTimingEnum, ...) If BeforeOrAfter = kBefore Then ' Check to see if the Entity being deleted is an interesting one. ' For example, it could have an attribute attached to it. If Interesting(Entity) Then ' Save a reference to the object. Set m_oDeletedEntity = Entity End If Else ' Now we're either after the delete or it's been aborted. ' Check to see if the object is the interesting one. If Entity is m_oDeletedEntity Then If BeforeOrAfter = kAfter then ' The object was deleted. Else If BeforeOrAfter = kAbort Then ' The delete was aborted. End If End If End Sub |
| BeforeOrAfter | EventTimingEnum | Input EventTimingEnum indicating when the event is being fired. Notification is sent before and after the entity is deleted. |
