You can call same common function but different event handler.

When you create the button you should keep its reference somewhere so you can test which button it is in the handler.

Java

Button FoodButton = new Button("DoIt")
Button DrinkButton = new Button("DoIt")

I'm developing a medical software.. where i will show all list of medicines and i will give option to add the item to cart from the list... so there will be list of thousands product so i have to create thousands of handlers..it will make my code very complicated. please give another solution

You do not need to create thousands of handlers; your design is wrong.

If you are displaying lists of medicines for the user to choose then you should be using a ListBox. You first ask some relevant questions and from the results build a list of the appropriate medicines. The user can then select the ones they need and click a single button to proceed with the order.
