Parameters

type: Type

The data type to create.

arguments: ICollection

The arguments to pass to the constructor for this type.

name: String

The name of the object. This name can be used to access the object later through GetInstance(String). If null is passed, the object is still created but cannot be accessed by name.

addToContainer: Boolean

If true, this object is added to the design container. The object must implement IComponent for this to have any effect.

Remarks

Objects that implement IComponent are added to the design-time container if the addToContainer parameter is true.
