How to trigger click event in code

You can triger it on 2 ways:

1. With subscribing to the Click event of button:

   this.button1.Click += new EventHandler(button1_Click);
   //there you have an event:
   private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
      //code inside event...
   }
   

2. or with an actual code:

   button1_Click(new object(), new EventArgs());
   

I came here for help on triggering a Click event on a toolstripitem that I had made an event for manually so I had no method to call directly. But turns out that the tsi have a method called

PerfomClick() 

That triggers the click event; I didn’t think to look for a method so I though to share it here and hopefully help others in the same situation.

My code looks like this if it helps:

Click performed on the second toolstrip item in the contexts menu

 ContextMenuStrip.Items[1].PerformClick();

Then the event it self

 tsmi.Click += (s, e) =>
 {
      BackUpVSSolution(@"C:\temp\");
 };

And it Works like a charm

thought i whould add this as well. if you just wanna start what ever proses is related to a file type or something you can just change it to something like

 tsmi.Click += (s, e) =>
 {
     Process.Start("C:\temp\temptext.txt");
 };

and this will open your default text editor program.

This Issue will Occur, If the Button Control Name Changes After the Click_Event Created. So i think, Copy your Code and Delete the Event from Code view, Run your Solution and Definitely an Error occurs, Click on the Error and that will Guide you to Designer Generated Code. Delete/Comment that part(Single Line of Click_Event_Name). Rebuild Your Code and Create a new Click_Event and Paste your Copied Code. Its Good,If you already find any solutions. Hope this Helps Somebody Else in the same trouble.
