Trigger event.

Hello, I'm kinda new to C++ coding, but I have experience with VB and web programming.

I made a form and after it's created I want it to trigger an event like this:

1
2
3
4
event()
{
// do things here
}


How can I make this possible?

This is my whole code, but not really important for this question.

			this->Controls->Add(this->label1);
			this->Name = L"Form2";
			this->ResumeLayout(false);
			this->PerformLayout();

		}
#pragma endregion
	};
}


And as last question what is the difference between class, int, bool and such? Like in:

1
2
3
class event()
int event()
bool event()


Thanks a lot!

This is C++/CLI. Although the forum descriptions might state that you can ask C++/CLI questions here, the truth is that most of us don't know C++/CLI. By all means feel free to hang out here, but be forewarned: Your CLI questions might go unanswered.

My honest advise: Post your CLI questions @ the MSDN forums.
