But the Click event supports
event bubbling, which gives you a better option. You can handle all the button clicks by handling
the Click event at a higher level (such as the containing StackPanel).
Unfortunately, this apparently obvious code doesn??™t work:

Command 1
Command 2
Command 3
...

The problem is that the StackPanel doesn??™t include a Click event, so this is interpreted by
the XAML parser as an error. For the same reason, the Handles statement won??™t work. The
solution is to use a different attached-event syntax in the form ClassName.EventName. Here??™s
the corrected example:

Command 1
Command 2
Command 3
...

Now your event handler receives the click for all contained buttons.

nNote The Click event is actually defined in the ButtonBase class and inherited by the Button class. If you
attach an event handler to ButtonBase.Click, that event handler will be used when any ButtonBase-derived
control is clicked (including the Button, RadioButton, and CheckBox classes).
