RegistryState Class

3/29/2010

Defines the state of a registry key (that is, the key name, the names of its values, and the data contained in its values).

Namespace: Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status
Assembly: Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status (in microsoft.windowsmobile.status.dll)

Syntax

public class RegistryState : StateBase, IDisposable

'Declaration
Public Class RegistryState
    Inherits StateBase
    Implements IDisposable

Remarks

When defining an instance of RegistryState that is going to handle the Changed event, make sure that the instance is defined globally in the class where the event will be handled. If it is defined in a method, it will be up for garbage collection after it goes out of scope.

public class MyClass
{
    RegistryState state; // defined globally to class
    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // SystemState state;  // This instance will go out of scope if defined here

        RegistryState state = new RegistryState("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\MyKey", "MyValue");
        state.Changed += new ChangeEventHandler(state_Changed);
    }
}
