Welcome to Kerala Microsoft Users Group (K-MUG)
Our mission is to Learn, Build Contacts & Socialize.
Participation in K-MUG is an excellent, inexpensive way to receive technical content, education and to meet with peers to get more out of the Microsoft platforms, products, technologies, and resources.
Microsoft & INETA (international .NET association) provide the technical materials (CDs, books, online resources etc) , infrastructure support and faculties for conducting a statewide seminar drive, which would educate and inform the public and the student community about the Microsoft Technologies.

Do you know? - .NET Reactive Extensions and LINQ To Events
The .NET Reactive Extensions (Rx) is the mathematical dual of LINQ to Objects. It consists of a pair of interfaces IObserver/IObservable that represent push-based, or observable, collections, plus a library of extension methods that implement the LINQ Standard Query Operators and other useful stream transformation functions.
The FromEvent method in System.Linq.Observable class will create an Observable, from an event. This example shows how to create a observer for the Mouse left button down event, for a given control
//Get the arrow keys down only
public static IObservable<Event<KeyEventArgs>> GetArrowKeyDown
(this UIElement el)
{
var arrows = new List<Key>
{ Key.Left, Key.Right, Key.Up, Key.Down };
var arrowsPressed = from kd in el.GetKeyDown()
where arrows.Contains(kd.EventArgs.Key)
select kd;
return arrowsPressed;
}
//----
//Some where in your main application
var arrowPressed=this.GetArrowKeyDown();
arrowPressed.Subscribe(arrow=>MessageBox.Show
(arrow.EventArgs.Key.ToString() + " Pressed!!"));
The above example uses the following FromEvent extension method overload, in the Observable class
