Passing variable with RoutedEventArgs?

Question

I have the following class, and want to pass the text variable as RoutedEventArgs.

  public class CloseableTabItem : TabItem
  {
    String text;

    public

I needed something similar and with the help of both @Arya and @H.B. I came up with this:

My custom RoutedEventArgs subclass

public class ChangePageEventArgs : RoutedEventArgs {
    private readonly int _pageNumber;

    public int PageNumber {
        get { return _pageNumber; }
    }

    public ChangePageEventArgs(RoutedEvent routedEvent, int pageNumber) : base(routedEvent) {
        this._pageNumber = pageNumber;
    }
}

My child class

private void defineButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
    ChangePageItemList(2);
}

public static readonly RoutedEvent GoToItemPropertiesViewEvent = EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent(
"GoToItemPropertiesView", RoutingStrategy.Bubble, typeof(RoutedEventHandler), typeof(NoObjectView));

// Provide CLR accessors for the event
public event RoutedEventHandler GoToItemPropertiesView {
    add { AddHandler(GoToItemPropertiesViewEvent, value); }
    remove { RemoveHandler(GoToItemPropertiesViewEvent, value); }
}

public void ChangePageItemList(int _pageNumber) {
    ChangePageEventArgs args = new ChangePageEventArgs(GoToItemPropertiesViewEvent, _pageNumber);
    this.RaiseEvent(args);
}

My parent class

private ItemListView createItemListView() {
    _itemListView = new ItemListView();
    _itemListView.GoToItemPropertiesView += new RoutedEventHandler(ChangePage);

    return _itemListView;
}

private void ChangePage(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
    ChangePageEventArgs args = (ChangePageEventArgs)e;
    // Value of page number is 2
    int _pageNumber = args.PageNumber;
}

Hope it helps you @Arya
