Parameters

  • codeBuffer
    Type: System.Text.StringBuilder

    The buffer that concatenates the code that this directive processor adds to the generated transformation class during a processing run.

Remarks

This is called by ProcessDirective.

Examples

This example generates code for the directive processor. This code example is part of a larger example that is provided for the RequiresProvidesDirectiveProcessor class.

protected override void GenerateTransformCode(string directiveName, StringBuilder codeBuffer, System.CodeDom.Compiler.CodeDomProvider languageProvider, IDictionary<string, string> requiresArguments, IDictionary<string, string> providesArguments)
{
// Write code to create a property backed by a field of type XmlDocument.
// The property is named "Dom" by default but the template writer may have changed the name using a custom provides clause like 'provides="Dom=AnotherName"'
string fieldName = providesArguments[DomProvidedParameterName].ToLower(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + "Value";
string propertyName = providesArguments[DomProvidedParameterName];
codeBuffer.Append(
"XmlDocument " + fieldName + ";" +
"XmlDocument " + propertyName +
"{ get { return this." + fieldName + "; } }");
}
