Get the Object name

[Danid]

Hello,
I place a TImage (I name it img1) on a form. How can i get the name of the image by clicking on it?

img1OnClick(TObject *Sender)
{
String imageName = ...;
ShowMessage (imageName );
}

Thanks,

,

img1OnClick(TObject *Sender)
{
TImage *Image = dynamic_cast<TImage*>(Sender);

if ( Image )
ShowMessage ( Image->Name() );
}

If the OnClick handler is only assigned to TImage objects, and never caled
manually, then use static_cast instead:

TImage *Image = static_cast<TImage*>(Sender);

'Name' is a property, not a fuction:

ShowMessage(Image->Name);

A property can be a function too. Look at all kinds of events.

typedef void __fastcall (__closure *OnClientConnectEvent)(TCustomWinSocket *Socket );

OnClientConnectEvent FOnClientConnect;

__property OnClientConnectEvent
OnClientConnect ={read=FOnClientConnect,write=FOnClientConnect};

Using OnClientConnect directly one would need a functioncall:

OnClientConnect(Socket);

But here it was Name yes. My mistake.
