在以编程方式填充后单击时，如何获取上下文菜单条中项目的文本？

Question

I'm trying to get the text of an ITEM in CONTEXT MENU STRIP when CLICKED after generated on runtime. I have already populated the ITEMS in CONTEXT MENU STRIP and added an event handler for click. The problem is I really don't know how to get the text of those items.

private void updateContext()
        {
            a_context_menu.Items.Clear();

            foreach (var a_device in a_devices)
            {
                var a_item = a_context_menu.Items.Add("A CONTEXT");
                var a_item = a_context_menu.Items.Add("B CONTEXT");

                a_item.Click += a_item_Click;
            }
        }

        private void a_item_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(a_item_Click.text);
        }

TYI

if a_context is clicked a message box will show with that item's text:

a_context

Cast the "sender" to "ToolStripItem"

private void A_item_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    MessageBox.Show(((ToolStripItem)sender).Text);
}

and... by the way, before you clear the items:

contextMenuStrip1.Items.Clear();

you need to remove the click event:

foreach (ToolStripItem ts in contextMenuStrip1.Items)
{
    ts.Click -= A_item_Click;
}

contextMenuStrip1.Items.Clear();

Or there's a memory leak happens.

just found the delegate function and i think it's the better approach.

    private void updateContextMenu()
    {    
         foreach (var a_device in a_devices)
         {
              var a_item = a_context_menu.Items.Add(aDevice.FullName);
              a_item.Click += delegate {
              a_item_Click(a_Device.FullName);
              };
    
         }
     }
    
    private void Mic_item_Click(string deviceName)
    {
         MessageBox.Show(a_deviceName);
    }
