Public Overridable Function CreateInstance (provider As IServiceProvider, objectType As Type, argTypes As Type(), args As Object()) As Object
- provider
- IServiceProvider
An optional service provider.
- objectType
- Type
The type of object to create. This parameter is never null
.
- argTypes
- Type[]
An optional array of types that represent the parameter types to be passed to the object's constructor. This array can be null
or of zero length.
- args
- Object[]
An optional array of parameter values to pass to the object's constructor.
The substitute Object.
- Attributes
The IServiceProvider specified by the provider
parameter is passed in by the TypeDescriptor.CreateInstance method of the TypeDescriptor class. If provider
is not null
, the service provider can be used by the type description provider to obtain additional context about the creation call.
The CreateInstance method is virtual
and, by default, returns the result of the Activator.CreateInstance method if parent
is null
. If parent
is not null
, this method will invoke the CreateInstance method of the parent provider.
If the derived class is not interested in providing a substitute instance, it should just call the base implementation.
