Method Begin
Begin(Toplevel)
Building block API: Creates a SessionToken and prepares the provided Toplevel for execution. Not usually called directly by applications. Use Run(Toplevel, Func<Exception, bool>?) instead.
public SessionToken Begin(Toplevel toplevel)Parameters
Returns
- SessionToken
The SessionToken that needs to be passed to the End(SessionToken) method upon completion.
Remarks
This method prepares the provided Toplevel for running. It adds this to the list of Toplevels, lays out the SubViews, focuses the first element, and draws the Toplevel on the screen. This is usually followed by starting the main loop, and then the End(SessionToken) method upon termination which will undo these changes.
Raises the SessionBegun event before returning.
Begin(IRunnable)
Building block API: Creates a RunnableSessionToken and prepares the provided IRunnable for execution. Not usually called directly by applications. Use Run(IRunnable, Func<Exception, bool>?) instead.
public RunnableSessionToken Begin(IRunnable runnable)Parameters
Returns
- RunnableSessionToken
The RunnableSessionToken that needs to be passed to the End(RunnableSessionToken) method upon completion.
Remarks
This method prepares the provided IRunnable for running. It adds this to the RunnableSessionStack, lays out the SubViews, focuses the first element, and draws the runnable on the screen. This is usually followed by starting the main loop, and then the End(RunnableSessionToken) method upon termination which will undo these changes.
Raises the IsRunningChanging, IsRunningChanged, IsModalChanging, and IsModalChanged events.
