Public Function GetGlyphs (activityDesigner As ActivityDesigner) As ActivityDesignerGlyphCollection

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how you can implement the GetGlyphs method to draw custom glyph objects on an activity designer surface.

This code example is part of the Workflow Monitor SDK Sample from the DesignerGlyphProvider.cs file. For more information, see Workflow Monitor.

//Custom glyphprovider used to draw the monitor glyphs on the designer surface
internal class WorkflowMonitorDesignerGlyphProvider : IDesignerGlyphProvider
{
    private Dictionary<string, ActivityStatusInfo> activityStatusList;

    internal WorkflowMonitorDesignerGlyphProvider(Dictionary<string, ActivityStatusInfo> activityStatusList)
    {
        this.activityStatusList = activityStatusList;
    }

    ActivityDesignerGlyphCollection IDesignerGlyphProvider.GetGlyphs(ActivityDesigner activityDesigner)
    {
        ActivityDesignerGlyphCollection glyphList = new ActivityDesignerGlyphCollection();

        //Walk all of the activities and use the 'CompletedGlyph' for all activities that are not 'closed'
        foreach (ActivityStatusInfo activityStatus in activityStatusList.Values)
        {
            if (activityStatus.Name == activityDesigner.Activity.QualifiedName)
            {
                if (activityStatus.Status == "Closed")
                    glyphList.Add(new CompletedGlyph());
                else
                    glyphList.Add(new ExecutingGlyph());
            }
        }

        return glyphList;
    }
}
