Remarks
The SelectionChanged event is raised when the user selects a day, a week, or an entire month by clicking the date selector controls.
Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Handling and Raising Events.
The OnSelectionChanged method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.
Notes to Inheritors
When overriding OnSelectionChanged() in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnSelectionChanged() method so that registered delegates receive the event.
